I was diagnosed with TB after they found a left pleural effusion and completed a 6-month treatment, using Acurit4 for 2 months and Acurit3 for the other 4 months. Now everything's good and I don't have any symptoms. I'm wondering, is it safe for me to get the COVID vaccine now? Is there a specific one I should be going for, like Covishield or Covaxin?

I'm really worried about my mother. She's been diagnosed with lymph nodes TB after a biopsy, and we saw a specialist at a private ENT hospital. They've prescribed a bunch of medications like AKuriT4, which includes Rifampicin, Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, and Ethambutol hydrochloride, along with Rablist DSR capsules, Livogen captabs, and Lyorech capsules. I'm just unsure where to start her treatmentshould we stick with the private hospital or go to a DOTS center? Are there any risks associated with either option? I just want to make sure I'm making the best choice for her care.
