Allow at least 7 days between having the shingles vaccine and the COVID-19 vaccine.
The manufacturers’ information for the Pfizer/BioNTech, AstraZeneca and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines is as follows:
“It should not be routine to offer appointments to give this vaccine at the same time as other vaccines. Scheduling should ideally be separated by an interval of at least 7 days to avoid the potential of adverse events.”
If you have any concerns, please contact your doctor. Our Patient Support Service is also available for people managing resistant infections.
