The COVID-19 vaccine teaches our immune system how to recognize and fight the virus that causes COVID-19. It typically takes two weeks after vaccination for the body to build protection (immunity) against the virus that causes COVID-19.

After you have been fully vaccinated, you may be able to start doing some things you had stopped doing because of the pandemic.

Many doctors’ offices, retail pharmacies, hospitals, and clinics offer COVID-19 vaccinations. The federal government is providing the vaccine free of charge to all people living in the United States, regardless of their immigration or health insurance status.

  • After you have been fully vaccinated, you may be able to start doing some things you had stopped doing because of the pandemic.

    Your reporting is MISINFORMATION

    • Dear Ministry of Truth,

      Are you saying the third dose increases immunity, so after the fourth dose you are protected and that once 80% of the population has received the fifth dose, the restrictions can be relaxed, as the sixth dose stops the virus from spreading, as will lead to calm and belief that the seventh dose will solve our problems and therefore give us no reason to fear the eighth dose necessary to the clinical phase of the ninth dose as will confirm how the antibodies remain stable after the tenth dose, and that because the eleventh dose guarantees that no new mutations will develop, there is no longer any reason to criticize the idea of the twelvth dose?

      If so, please tell us. The best sermon we'll ever here is on hope!

    • you're , not your

      after you have been fully vaccinated you may be able to start reporting your own misinformation better yet censor me now mother may i have another

  • ^ Calls out one of the most common spelling errors while lazily refusing to capitalize or use punctuation.
