Is It Safe To Be In Contaminated Building After Yellow Fever Injection?

Hi there, I have had a yellow fever injection as I'm traveling abroad over the next month. My work environment has higher fungal levels then normal due to the massive flooding and contamination of the building. We've been told that it's not unsafe for healthy people and I'm concerned that since I have recently received the injection that it might be best to avoid the office. I have been feeling a bit run down and have had headaches. Any advice?
