The most significant safety issues with this vaccine specifically regard the 250ug dose, which was not used in Phase 2 and won't be used in Phase 3.
As long as it's not a Grade 3 fever, I don't see a problem: many vaccines can cause (transient) fevers. (Part of that is due to the adjuvants used to prime the immune system by causing a localized inflammation).
I got a shot for the yellow fever a few years ago and I felt quite bad for a couple of days. When I was asked for a booster shot for measles, I was warned of the possibility of developing fever for a couple of days as well.
