How long back you have had your first dose of vaccination. If it is recently then this sore throat and low grade fever must be because of the vaccine....
Temperature that you have mentioned is normal temperature..... Do not worry about it
If any other symptoms( light headache ,body pains, running nose etc...) associated then you may need further treatment.
