COVID 19: CDC currently advises that “people with a known hx of COVID-19 may wait up to nearly 90 days after their prior infection to get vaccinated, if they prefer to do so.” REF: https://www.healthline.com/health-news/even-if-youve-had-covid-19-you-still-need-the-vaccine#Vaccination-may-raise-immunity
