I use covid self-test kits and it shows positive. Currently I do not have serious symptoms, no fever, still have tastes, just a bit sleepy. I have a booster vaccine appointment next week. May I ask whether I can take the booster vaccine in this case?
"Do I need a booster if I tested positive for coronavirus after receiving my initial vaccination?
If an infection with the coronavirus has been confirmed after the completion of the primary vaccination course, the following applies:
If the infection occurred within 4 months after the primary vaccination course, a booster is recommended 4 months after this infection.If the infection occurred more than 4 months after the completion of the primary vaccination course,as a rule no booster is currently necessary.
Completion of the primary vaccination course exists after
two doses of an mRNA vaccine;confirmed infection with the coronavirus + one dose of an mRNA vaccine at least 4 weeks apart (regardless of the order)."
First off get a proper test, because if you are positive and you get an offical test (also have to isolate then 7 days from the first symptoms) you can get a certificate at the end. It would in effect replace one of your jabs.
Second from experience around me, 3 shots or 2 shots plus being tested once positive does not stop you from getting positive again 6 months down the line - because of mutations I am assuming.
I also know people already having 4th shots... really not sure how are we getting out of this mess.
To check, is it not 10 days of isolation with a positive test? I am currently in this position, no symptoms but positive (with PCR) since Monday with two kids in the apartment No contact from the tracing people though, guess they are a bit too busy right now!
