Vaccination is to be given carefully to co morbidity pts. Immunity remains compromised in many cases. Generally vaccine is safe. 2-4 cases in 10000 are adversely affected after vaccination as per experts which is very meager no. Better to consult doctor at covid centre or meet your expert before getting shot.

Dear lybrate-user, please ask him to take the vaccine at the earliest. With so many co morbid conditions, he all the more requires vaccination. Kindly go ahead without any doubt.
