5 reasons why you should take dose of COVID-19 vaccine.

 "The world is in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic" according to WHO

Vaccines save millions of lives each year. Att least seven different vaccines across three platforms have been rolled out in countries on 18 February 2021. Vulnerable populations in all countries are the highest priority for vaccination.

How does a vaccine works?

 Vaccines work by training and preparing the body’s natural defenses – the immune system – to recognize and fight off the viruses and bacteria they target. After vaccination, if the body is later exposed to those disease-causing germs, the body is immediately ready to destroy them, preventing illness.

Which age groups are at a higher risk of contracting COVID-19?

Although all age groups are at risk of contracting COVID-19, older people face significant risk of developing severe illness if they contract the disease due to physiological changes that come with ageing and potential underlying health conditions.

which vaccines you should get

the three COVID-19 vaccines, are safe and effective,” said Sandra Fryhofer, MD, an Atlanta general internist who serves as the AMA’s liaison to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). Dr. Fryhofer also is a member of ACIP’s COVID-19 Vaccine Work Group. 

Whether it is Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson (J&J), “ACIP has expressed no preference for any of these three authorized vaccines,” she said. What is preferred is to “get vaccinated as soon as you can, when it's your turn, and with whichever vaccine is available. That's how we're going to end this pandemic.”
