Never ever vaccinate sick animal/birds, vaccines work by triggering the immune system to respond to the toxoids components of the vaccine. For the birds to respond to any vaccine, the immune system should not be fighting any other infection. Otherwise the system will be over worked leading to death of birds the more.
