Symptom narrative

Positive for COVID-19; Positive for COVID-19; This is a spontaneous report received from a consumer, Program ID. A 42-year-old female patient received BNT162b2 omi xbb.1.5 (COMIRNATY (2023-2024 FORMULA)), in 2023 as dose 1, single (Batch/Lot number: unknown) for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history and concomitant medications were not reported. Vaccination history included: Bnt162b2 (Primary immunization series completed), for COVID-19 immunization; Bnt162b2 (DOSE NUMBER UNKNOWN (BOOSTER)), for COVID-19 immunization. The following information was reported: DRUG INEFFECTIVE (medically significant), COVID-19 (medically significant), outcome "unknown" and all described as "Positive for COVID-19". The event "positive for covid-19" required physician office visit. The patient underwent the following laboratory tests and procedures: SARS-CoV-2 test: Positive. A day before the reporting, the patient's husband got a prescription to get nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (PAXLOVID) tablet for the patient. She got positive for COVID-19, and they had an appointment with the health provider, and he prescribed PAXLOVID tablet. The patient was really sick, she actually needs this medicine and that's why the provider prescribed it last night; the medicine is prescribed for 15 days. Now that the patient is already detected with COVID-19, the patient's husband asked after how many days they can take the COVID-19 vaccine again, because they missed it for the last two years, and in 2023 they had all the Pfizer vaccines, you know taken correctly with the booster, but for 2024 and 2025 they didn't take any vaccines, and looks like she just got diagnosed with COVID-19. So now, after this medicine course has been completed, the patient's husband asked if they could take the vaccine immediately, or they have to wait for maybe 16 or 30 days. The patient's husband thinks he will get the medicine now, because the patient was already having trouble, and then he'll talk to his healthcare provider.
