Traveling in old-age during covid
We want our grandma to travel from Lucknow to Bangalore this week, of course we'll be with her. She is very diabetic and often falls sick. Her bp keeps fluctuating to extremely high and low. Her doctor says that she can't recieve a covisheild since she's diabetic. Can she travel? Will she never be able to get a shot? We also need a doctor 24/7 for assistance if she does come to Bangalore ? Please help us out to schedule a call with us asap. Thanks !

Not sure why she has not got the vaccine. Ideally she should get at least one dose before travelling as something is better than nothing.
Book an online consultation for further management of geriatric conditions.
