yes i agree with 68bruin (is that Don K, pres of ZNA socal?)... give it a shot, and another 2 or 3 days later. might as well disinfect the wound again at the same time.
i am not an expert... so take this with a big grain of salt -- if i were in your position, and going away for a week, i would leave it in the main 60 degree F pond after the shot, because at a 77oF things can change real fast -- hopefully for the better, but then again things can go downhill really fast and no one's home to take real action (like give a second or third shot).
a normal koi prolly wouldn't die from just the temp change, but you gotta judge from the condition of the whole fish; this is not to say such a flux in temp is good for it, b/c you'll have to return it to 60 deg later on i assume...
if i was not going on vacation, 60% of me would still want to leave it in the main pond. hope that helps...
