Benefits of Getting a COVID-19 Vaccine
(Information from the CDC, Up-dated April 12th, 2021)
All COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the United States have been shown to be safe and effective at preventing COVID-19.
Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
COVID-19 vaccination is a safer way to help build protection.
COVID-19 can have serious, life-threatening complications, and there is no way to know how COVID-19 will affect you.
And if you get sick, you could spread the disease to friends, family, and others around you.
COVID-19 vaccination will be an important tool to help stop the pandemic. Wearing masks and staying 6 feet apart from others help reduce your chance of being exposed to the virus or spreading it to others, but these measures are not enough. Vaccines will work with your immune system so it will be ready to fight the virus if you are.
COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective.
We understand that some people may be concerned about getting vaccinated now that COVID-19 vaccines are available in the United States. While more COVID-19 vaccines are being developed as quickly as possible, routine processes and procedures remain in place to ensure the safety of any vaccine that is authorized or approved for use. Safety is a top priority, and there are many reasons to get vaccinated.
None of the COVID-19 vaccines can make you sick with COVID-19.
None of the COVID-19 vaccines contain the live virus that causes COVID-19 so a COVID-19 vaccine cannot make you sick with COVID-19.
