Confused about second jab after testing positive

Sorry if I am asking a question that has been asked millions of times, but I am struggling to find an answer.

DS had his first Jab on Feb 7th. He tested +ve for Covid on 20th March.

I read that adults can have thier second booster 28 days after they test positive or symptoms appear, but I cannot seem to find the information for children. DS is 15.

Anyone know?

I think it’s 12 weeks after infection. It certainly was last year!

Sorry-pressed post too soon….
We had to wait as DS caught covid after his first jab. He’s 16.

12 weeks for under 18s.

28 days for over 18s
