Before the vaccination

Before I received my first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccination, I made sure that I did not have any active upper respiratory tract infections such as cough and cold. I did not take any preventive medication before my vaccination.

The vaccination process

On the day of vaccination, I received a message from the local health and welfare body mentioning the time of vaccination and details of the vaccination centre. I was also asked to carry my proof of identification such as Aadhar card or driving license or passport. I carried my hospital identification along with other documents.
