The intervals between the second and third shots may vary depending on the vaccine, with six months or more between the second and third shots for the new Crown inactivated vaccine and four weeks and more between the second and third shots for the recombinant subunit vaccine.
The vaccine is one of the main measures available to help people effectively prevent CKP, so it is important for both men and women, young and old, to be up-to-date on CKP vaccinations when it is not contraindicated.
The current vaccine is an inactivated vaccine against the new coronavirus, and the third dose is a booster shot that should be given more than six months apart from the second dose.
However, if the recombinant subunit vaccine is used by some people, then there is no booster shot, and the number of doses for the whole vaccination is three, with the timing of the second and third shots recommended to be four weeks and above, and the third shot to be completed as much as possible within six months of the first shot.
Individuals are required to remain in the designated area of the vaccination site for 30 minutes after receiving the new Crown vaccine, and then leave the area when they are not experiencing any discomfort.
