Did you know?
- If you’re unvaccinated, you’re 2 times more likely to get COVID, 5 times more likely to need hospital care from it, and 17 times more likely to die from it than people who are vaccinated and boosted.
- Even mild cases of COVID have caused damage to the lungs, heart, brain, and many other organs, leading to an increased risk of long-term health problems such as strokes or seizures. Boosters give you an extra layer of protection from COVID.
- Over time, vaccines may become less effective at preventing COVID. Getting your COVID booster extends your protection and keeps you safer from emerging variants.
- Long-term effects on your health from vaccines are unlikely. Safety monitoring shows that almost all side effects are mild and occur within 6 weeks of vaccination. Millions of people have received COVID vaccines and boosters without experiencing serious, long-term health effects from the vaccine.
- Temporary side effects from vaccines, including COVID vaccines, are common for both adults and children and these effects are usually mild.
