Have questions about how viral vector vaccines protect you against #COVID19?
They teach your body how to recognize the virus that causes COVID-19. If you are exposed to the virus later, your body will know how to fight it off. Learn more: bit.ly/31sDVjD.
A viral vector vaccine uses a harmless version of a different virus to deliver information to your body that helps it protect you. The vaccine does not contain the virus that causes #COVID19 and cannot give you COVID-19. Learn more: bit.ly/31sDVjD.
If you are exposed to the real #COVID19 virus after being vaccinated, your body sees these proteins and tells your immune system to fight the virus. Learn more: bit.ly/31sDVjD.
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. This are normal signs that your body is building protection. Learn more: bit.ly/31sDVjD.
Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is an important tool to help stop the pandemic. More on how viral vector #COVID19 vaccines work: bit.ly/31sDVjD.

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.

New @CDCMMWR shows COVID-19 antigen tests can be fast and inexpensive but sometimes require a second test to confirm the result. Protect others until your test result is confirmed. Learn more: bit.ly/MMWR123120. Image
HCPs: A recent @CDCMMWR found that antigen tests were less accurate than RT-PCR tests in correctly identifying people with #COVID19. Learn more: bit.ly/MMWR123120. Image
However, the report also shows that people with no symptoms with negative antigen test results are unlikely to have COVID-19 and generally do not require further testing. Image
