Judging by the Covid vax it takes 2 weeks for an immune response… but I am just guessing. If you are worried maybe get some advice from your CNS? xx

Hi I had to stay out of contact with grand children for 2 weeks. It is a live vaccine up their noses. All the other vaccination adults have including COVID and adult flu are not 'live vaccines and so even though an adult may have side effects that appear to be the flu you can't transmit it. Haven't heard an difference with COVID but maybe check with your team. I chose to do 3 away from Grandaughters just to be extra careful. Hard but at least I could have video contact. X

Thank you. I knew that I needed to be careful due to them receiving a live vaccine.
