Being protected from a virus doesn’t stop with getting vaccinated.
In an episode of “Pinoy MD,” Dr. Oyie Balburias said it was also important to ensure that the body’s immune system was well taken care of.
“Hindi lang bakuna ang mahalaga. Mahalaga rin yung magiging response ng iyong immune system doon sa nilalaman ng bakuna para mag-develop ng proteksyon kung ma-encounter yung virus.”
[The vaccine is not the only thing important. The response of your immune system to the vaccine is also important so it can develop protection if it encounters a virus.]
According to Balburias, things that should be avoided after getting inoculated include staying up late, drinking alcohol, and getting stressed.
“All these can weaken your immune system,” he said in a mix of English and Filipino.
According to the Department of Health, smoking and going out unless necessary should also be avoided after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. – Franchesca Viernes/RC, GMA News
