Are COVID-19 vaccines safe?

How many shots/doses are needed?

Both the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and the Moderna vaccine require two doses. The Pfizer vaccine requires a second dose 21 days after the first vaccine, and the Moderna vaccine requires a second dose 28 days after the first vaccine.

Are the new vaccines effective?

Yes, both the Pfizer and the Moderna vaccine are more than 94% effective.

Will vaccinations cause side effects?

Most people will have pain at the injection site, and some will have fatigue, headache, muscle pains, chills, or diarrhea. Some people will have no side effects at all. If side effects occur, they usually last for less than one day.

After I’m vaccinated, what precautions do I need to continue to take?

After you have been vaccinated, you must continue to wear a mask, wash your hands, and practice social distancing. Please continue to follow these precautions.

Can women who are pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant be vaccinated?

Please speak with your doctor about whether or not to be vaccinated.
