When should I get my 5 to 11 year old vaccinated if they've had COVID?

So, whilst COVID infection will provide some natural immunity and protection against COVID re-infection, that does reduce or wane over time.

So, if your child is due their second dose, it is recommended that they get the second dose 3 months after COVID infection.
