I'm really worried because my dad got his first Covishield shot back in March, but then he tested positive for Covid on May 1st. Is it okay for him to get his second dose now, and if it is, when would be the right time for him to take it?

So my 22-year-old brother has had a cold and fever since yesterday, and we just found out he's positive for coronavirus. His pulse is over 100 even when he's relaxed, and his oxygen saturation is around 93-94. He's dizzy and his nose is completely blocked, plus his fever's hovering around 99. The online doctor suggested waiting it out with nasal spray and flu meds. Should I be thinking about taking him to the hospital, or is it okay to give it a few more hours to see if the meds help?
