I've just gotten the Covishield vaccine and I'm a bit nervous about smoking afterwards. Could you tell me what might happen if I light up a cigarette post-vaccination? Is it really a bad idea? I dont want to mess up the vaccines effectiveness or my health. Just trying to figure out the consequences here.

Smoking after taking the Covishield vaccination is not recommended, as smoking can weaken the immune system, reduce the vaccine's efficacy, and increase the risk of severe COVID-19 symptoms, and consequences of smoking after vaccination may include reduced antibody production, impaired immune response, and increased risk of respiratory complications, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and bronchitis.
