Hello!!
Taking vaccination does not mean that you will not be infected. It simply means that the severity of the infection will be less. And since you have had a positive contact, the likelihood of inflection increases.
Next Steps
He needs to be quarantine ld, started on medication, follow a healthy diet and need to watch out for breathlessness.
also, check his saturation levels everyday, even twice a day, if possible. Make sure it's more than 94%.
If his oxygen level is less, you need to take him to a hospital.
Health Tips
Please make sure that he's not anxious.
If you need further assistance, please take a consult.
