Hi,
Thank you for the query. I can understand your concern. According to your statement, you have accidentally received 2 first doses of Covid shot.
As, it has already happened accidentally, so don't be worried at all. After taking 2 first doses of Covid shot, I hope you are alright now and you will be alright in near future too.
According to the Covid guidelines, it is mentioned that 2 shots are needed and the second dose should be taken one month apart from the first dose. But, it is not mentioned that 2 first doses of Covid shot can't be taken or contraindicated.
So, don't be worried at all. Let bygones, be bygones. Look forward and take your second dose of Covid shot on the due time.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hi,
Thank you for joining again. It is not a matter of fine or bad. You have already taken 2 first doses of Covid shot. It is an irreversible incident. There is nothing to do. There is no medication or procedure that can change or reverse your present condition.
You are alright now. Stay calm and observe. If any complications occur in near future, then treat them accordingly. At present, as you have no complications, so there is nothing to be worried. If you experience any complications in the near future and seems to be developed due to double doses, then you should inform your doctor first for medical attention. I hope, nothing will be happened in near future due to taking double doses.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
