Booster after COVID

[Marie41]

Hi all I've had COVID and am now due a booster. Not sure whether to leave it for another month or so. Had anyone else had Covid followed by the booster jab?

Thanks

According to advice from Public Health England, if you have Covid or have recently had the virus, you should wait for at least 28 days before you have your booster.

Hi. I decided to have it. 6 weeks after Covid. But interestingly, when i told them I'm potentially immune compromised, they treated it as a third primary so it would trigger a call for a booster in 6 months

I had my booster a few days back, having tested positive for Covid (no symptoms) in mid August. I must admit I did hesitate and wondered whether to delay it a bit but went when called in the end. Interesting to hear Jonathan van Tam on bbc Breakfast yesterday hinting that we may need a Covid vaccine every year like flu.

Contact your rheumatology team and ask their advice. Most are happy to receive phone calls and emails. I know mine are always available to us
