I'm currently on an antirabies vaccine schedule and was wondering if having a moderate amount of alcohol between the shots is safe. The vaccine consists of two doses, one on day zero and another on the third day. Are there any issues with drinking alcohol when it's not on the same day as getting the shot?

My mom's started shivering all of a sudden, but she doesn't have a fever. I'm not sure what could be causing this. Could it be from the cold, or could it be something like an infection instead? Any ideas on what we should do?

I'm feeling this weird internal fever for the past four days, even though my thermometer says I'm at a normal 98.6. I just don't feel right on the inside, you know? Im not experiencing body aches or anything like shortness of breath, but I'm definitely not feeling as active as usual. There's no cough, but there's a slight discomfort in my chest. Do you think this could be related to COVID-19 or maybe it's just anxiety? Im really worried because they sealed our society after someone tested positive for coronavirus. Any advice or insights would be appreciated.

its better to check for covid because history of covid is there recently
