As per the guidelines and documents, covishield is not contraindicated. But as covishield, has some (not verified) reported cases of coagulation as side effect so taking covaxin is a better option. But I again repeat both covishield and covaxin can be used and safe. Whatever is easily available get it. Avoid use of unnecessary medications, avoid vaccine myths.
