About how long after Covid-19 infection can it take to show symptoms? Am I correct to think they can develop after vaccination if infection took place before vaccination?

Mavolyn, People with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness. Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. Read more here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/symptoms.html

And yes, symptoms can develop after receiving the vaccine if the person was infected with COVID before receiving the vaccine.
