PCV usually doesnt cause fever..this can be due to changes in climate.
Give paracetamol only if temp crosses 99.5.

Hi,
PCV is a painless vaccine. Temperature more than 99.4 deg F is fever. So nothing to worry.

There can be pain or mild fever with vaccinations. Give paracetamol thrice a day for 1 or 2 days
