Is this covid-19 infection? – Grandstand online
Written by Dr Wale Okediran
A few days ago I developed a cold, catarrh, joint pain and fever, which did not improve after taking anti-malarials. I am wondering if after taking three anti-Covid vaccinations can I still have a Covid infection? I am a 60 year old retired teacher and I hardly ever leave the house.

Even though some people vaccinated against Covid have been confirmed to still develop the condition, such cases are usually very mild. In addition, recently some new variants of Covid infections have been blamed for some new infections. It is also important to note that malaria and some viral infections can also mimic covid infection. It is therefore advisable to get treatment for this, while a test for Covid infection can confirm your correct diagnosis.
