Can the booster injection of COVID-19 vaccine be administered together? What should be paid attention to after the third injection of COVID-19 vaccine

Can COVID-19 vaccine be used together with other vaccines

It is not recommended to use it together with other vaccines. It is recommended to separate the vaccination time from other vaccines by at least two weeks. There are a lot of things to pay attention to when vaccinating COVID-19, such as taking a rest the day before the vaccination, not staying up late, and maintaining the best state of the body. Try not to drink alcohol, eat spicy and stimulating foods, and avoid seafood and other easily allergenic foods before vaccination. Take a shower in advance, maintain personal hygiene, wear clothes that are easy to put on and take off, and have loose cuffs. Before inoculation of COVID-19 inactivated vaccine, the vaccination doctor will ask about the health condition, and please truthfully inform the relevant information, especially for patients with fever, acute bacterial, viral infection and chronic diseases, the condition cannot be concealed.

After vaccination, it is necessary to stay on site for 30 minutes. On the day of vaccination, the injection site should be kept dry and personal hygiene should be observed. Rest should be arranged appropriately. Within one week after vaccination, avoid contact with known allergens and common allergens, try not to drink alcohol, avoid spicy, stimulating or seafood foods, and recommend a light diet and plenty of water.

It is uncertain whether COVID-19 vaccine can be used together with other vaccines. Because COVID-19 vaccine is still in research and development and clinical trials and has not been officially launched, it is also unknown what the taboos of COVID-19 vaccine injection are and whether it can be used together with other vaccines. However, according to the announcement released on July 29, 2020, five vaccines have been approved for clinical trials, and two vaccines have been approved for phase 3 clinical trials. If phase 3 clinical trials are successful, vaccines can be mass-produced. So when the vaccine comes into the market, we also know some taboos of injecting COVID-19 vaccine.

Can two shots of COVID-19 vaccine be taken together

No. Like other vaccines, COVID-19 vaccine may lead to fever, fatigue, headache,,, abdominal pain, diarrhea in some people during the period of activating the immune mechanism in the body, or adverse reactions such as,,, acid swelling, and pain in the vaccination site. If two injections are given together, the number of people with adverse reactions will increase, so it is not recommended to give two injections together.

Expert opinion: The chief epidemiologist professor of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said, "In the case of two shots at a time, the medical staff involved in the vaccination are against the rules, the adverse reactions of the vaccinators may worsen, and the antibody maintenance time and the effect of COVID-19 vaccine are also difficult to guarantee. The interval between shots of COVID-19 vaccine is different for different brands, and it is generally recommended that the interval between two shots be 14-28 days. You must strictly follow the instructions to ensure the effect of vaccination.

COVID-19 vaccine has two shots, and there is no obvious difference. COVID-19 vaccine usually needs to be inoculated in two shots, and the first and second shots need to be inoculated separately. For example, after the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine, the second dose of COVID-19 vaccine is usually inoculated at an interval of 14 to 28 days. Two doses of COVID-19 vaccine belong to the same COVID-19 inactivated vaccine. Generally, after the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine, the body can gradually produce a certain titer of antibody, but at this time, the efficiency of protecting the body is low. Usually, after receiving the second dose, the protective effect on the body will be stronger and the duration will be longer. Therefore, it is suggested that the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine should be given at an interval of 2 to 4 weeks before the second dose of vaccine can play a better role in immune defense. Therefore, it is necessary to vaccinate COVID-19 vaccine reasonably and normatively.
