India's COVID-19 Cases Rise Amidst Discussions on Vaccine Side Effects
COVID-19 cases are going up in India.
Vaccines help protect people from getting very sick.
However, some people have reported feeling sick after getting the vaccine.
Scientists have called this Post-Vaccination Syndrome (PVS).
This involves symptoms like tiredness and headaches, that don't go away.
It's rare, and most people who get vaccines are fine.
If you think you have PVS, it's important to track your symptoms, see specialists, and take care of your mental health.
Remember to listen to your body and don’t push yourself too hard.
