https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="Fettes weißes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes weißes Häkchen"> Absolutely incorrect. Do not believe such unscientific claims.

A vaccine trains your immune system to recognize covid without getting infected by the actual virus. It does not give you an infection. You cannot give covid to other people if you take the vaccine. Rather, taking the vaccine will protect you from Covid.

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="Fettes weißes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes weißes Häkchen"> Take the available vaccine. Do not elapse time waiting for a & #39;preferred vaccine& #39; and delay protection. Consider yourself lucky that you have available slots now!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✅" title="Fettes weißes Häkchen" aria-label="Emoji: Fettes weißes Häkchen"> No. It does not offer you any protection from getting infected. Embrace double masking, hand hygiene and avoid crowds to keep you safe from infection.

If you have had a normal recovery without complications and have no issues at present, no blood test are required. Focus on boosting your recovery through proper diet, rest and exercises.

Not to worry. In some cases it can take up to a month or more for one to regain sense of smell and taste. It will gradually come back on it& #39;s own.

14 days after recovery is a good time to take the vaccine. Note that one might experience mild flu like symptoms after vaccination. You can take paracetamol in such cases. Get vaccinated!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❓" title="Rotes Fragezeichen-Symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Rotes Fragezeichen-Symbol">Should I be worried about the CT Score of my RTPCR test?
No. A patient should not speculate about the CT score. The treatment is not based on CT score, but your symptoms, blood test reports and vitals. So, stop trying to interpret it and getting anxious about it.

Generally not a concern. These are markers of inflammation and cannot comment on standalone reports. If she doesnt have symptoms and stable vitals it should be fine.

His oxygen level is decreasing. Currently they are using an oxygen cylinder at home. SpO2 is 85. Should he get hospitalized?

Considering the saturation levels, it is recommended to go for immediate hospitalisation.
