Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If Kia had Coronavirus, it can remain present in her stool for up to 6 months. If it has not been over 6 months, I would hold off on any vaccinations and wait until the 6 month period to retest the stool and reconsider boostering the vaccinations. Every veterinarian is going to have different requirements so I would just speak with your veterinarian on the phone and confirm that this is what he / she would like to do as well. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
