See below for an infographic explaining frequently asked questions about the COVID-19 vaccine.
As you weigh whether to get the COVID-19 vaccine, here are some useful facts to consider:
- COVID-19 vaccines will not give you the disease.
- Getting a COVID-19 vaccination will help build your body’s immune system and could prevent you from becoming seriously ill.
- Approved COVID-19 vaccines have gone through strict clinical trials that tested how effective they are and whether they are safe to use.
Even if you get the vaccine, continue to use each of these tools to stop the pandemic:
- Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth to help protect yourself and others.
- Stay 6 feet apart from others who don’t live with you.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water. Use hand sanitizer if soap and water aren’t available.
