Have questions on how mRNA vaccines protect against #COVID19?

The mRNA in #COVID19 vaccines has information to teach your body how to fight the virus. The vaccine does not contain live virus, so it can’t give you COVID-19. It cannot change your DNA. More: bit.ly/3qAVLM0
mRNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein that triggers an immune response to #COVID19 inside our bodies. The immune response makes antibodies that protect us from getting infected if the real virus enters our bodies. More: bit.ly/3qAVLM0.
If you are exposed to the real #COVID19 virus after being vaccinated, your body recognizes these proteins and tells your immune system to fight the virus. Learn more: bit.ly/3qAVLM0.
Remember, when your body responds to the #COVID19 vaccine, it can sometimes feel like a viral infection. You may have tiredness, headache, muscle pain, chills, fever, or nausea. These are normal signs your body is building protection. Learn more: bit.ly/3qAVLM0.
#COVID19 vaccines are an important tool to stop this pandemic. Learn more about mRNA vaccines and how they help protect you against COVID-19: bit.ly/3qAVLM0.

LISTERIA OUTBREAK: CDC is investigating a Listeria outbreak with several recent illnesses. The source of the outbreak has not yet been identified. Investigators are collecting as much information as possible to solve this outbreak.

This outbreak is different from the one linked to deli meat & cheese and the outbreak linked to enoki mushrooms. If you’re pregnant, 65 or older, or have a weakened immune system:
•Reheat meat/cheese from deli counters to 165°F or until steaming hot
•Cook enoki mushrooms fully
Currently, 11 illnesses have been reported from 10 states: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Michigan, Missouri, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, and Washington. You can see the map if you click on the “Map” button at the bottom of the outbreak webpage.

New data show the #COVID19 variant #XBB.1.5 is projected to make up 40.5% of COVID-19 cases nationally. See thread below for what we currently know and on what you can do to protect yourself.

See COVID Data Tracker: bit.ly/3BOwX9Q
#COVID19 variant #XBB.1.5 may be more transmissible than other variants, but we don’t know if it causes more severe disease. We’re closely watching this variant to see how well our vaccines & treatments are working against it.
CDC constantly monitors for and reports on current and new COVID-19 variants. As more genetic sequencing data are gathered week to week, today's projections may change. But our advice on protecting yourself from #COVID19 does not.

Starting Jan 5, 2023: Travelers flying to U.S. from China, or who have been in China in the past 10 days & are flying from certain airports, must show a negative #COVID19 test taken within 2 days before #travel to the US or documentation of recovery.

More info: Because of surge in COVID-19 cases in China + the lack of adequate, transparent sequencing data, incl. critical viral genomic sequence data, the U.S. is taking steps to protect Americans’ public health and be on alert for any potential #COVID19 variants.
Based on lack of available data, incl. limited availability of viral genomic sequencing data to help identify new #COVID19 variants & a limited number of testing/reporting of new cases, it is harder for U.S. public health officials to identify new variants spreading to U.S.
