As India reels under the second wave of Covid-19, there have been reports of reinfection. Some people who have been vaccinated against Covid were diagnosed with the disease again.
Can you get Covid-19 even after vaccination?
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) of the Government of India took to Twitter to clear the air about this question. According to the government, yes, people can get infected with Covid-19 even after they are vaccinated. However, a very small percentage of people are contracting coronavirus after getting vaccinated. Even after they test positive, they experience mild symptoms, the government said.
바카라Vaccination is crucial to prevent COVID-19. Only 0.03%-0.04% of the people have contracted COVID-19 after vaccination and even they have had mild symptoms,바카라 the PIB said.
바카라Vaccine will not allow the virus to further replicate and it will not allow the disease to become more severe,바카라 the government added.
바카라But during that time, your RT-PCR test can be positive and you may be infectious to others so it바카라s important to follow COVID-19 appropriate behaviour even after vaccination,바카라 it further said.
What does WHO say about it?
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has mentioned, 바카라There have been concerns about Covid-19 vaccines making people sick with Covid-19. But none of the approved vaccines contain the live virus that causes Covid-19, which means that Covid-19 vaccines cannot make you sick with Covid-19.바카라
바카라After vaccination, it usually takes a few weeks for the body to build immunity against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19. So it바카라s possible a person could be infected with SARS-CoV-2 just before or after vaccination and still get sick with Covid-19. This is because the vaccine has not yet had enough time to provide protection,바카라 the WHO said.
