Booster booked, now got covid, what are guidelines?

[tactum]

Booster was booked for next Monday, tested positive and started symptoms this Tuesday. Obviously I know I can't go, but I cant find any official advice about when to reschedule.
I'm sure I heard something about 30 days, but is it 30 days from a positive test, or 30 days post isolation or what? Does anyone know?
Many thanks. Feeling pretty grotty, boo.

I waited 4 weeks after my isolation ended just to be on the safe side.

It’s 28 days after a positive test or when your symptoms started if you had them.

Should have said, hope you feel better soon.

28 days from positive test

@GoodnightGrandma

28 days from positive test

Or symptoms. Whichever comes first

Where I work it’s from test.

My son had vivid and was told he couldn't get his vaccine within 28 days of the positive test

Thanks v much, will rebook accordingly

This is covered in the green book. Four weeks from onset of symptoms or positive test if no symptoms.

See “precautions” on p28. This is what every vaccine centre in the uk will be following.

Maybe consider Covid as your booster snd delay the actual booster for a few months to top up your immunity next year?

@CiderWithLizzie that's what I'm doing, have been told recovering from Covid confers "broader spectrum" protection for up to a year but can't find anything official because it's all quite generic public health advice, unsurprisingly.

My very basic understanding is that over-vaccinating isn't just a waste of resources but it means the immune response will be smaller each time.

I'm CEV but my Covid was mild, I think vaccines did their job and I'm grateful.

It’s what my ITU consultant friend is doing too and seems very sensible.
