Yes, we would recommend persons identified as a candidate consider getting the vaccine, weighing the benefits vs the risks. To find more information about effectiveness and possible risks go here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/vaccine-benefits.html. When it becomes available to the public, it is important for each person to work with their health care provider to weigh the benefits vs the risks and make an informed decision. Please see some information below on those who should NOT get the vaccine.
CDC considers a history of the following to be reason NOT to get vaccinated with either the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines:
- Severe allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis) after a previous dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine or any of its components
- Immediate allergic reaction of any severity to a previous dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine or any of its components (including polyethylene glycol [PEG])*
- Immediate allergic reaction of any severity to polysorbate (due to potential cross-reactive hypersensitivity with the vaccine ingredient PEG)*
Each vaccine works a little different. Some vaccines require two doses and another only requires one dose. Full effectiveness from the vaccine will be 2 weeks after receiving a second dose of the Pfizer or Moderna, or 2 weeks after one dose of the Johnson & Johnson. A more in-depth overview of how the vaccines work can be found here: https://www.cdc.gov/
Vaccine doses purchased with U.S. taxpayer dollars will be given to the American people at no cost. However, vaccine providers will be able to charge administration fees for giving or administering the shot to someone. Vaccine providers can get this fee reimbursed by the patient’s public or private insurance company or, for uninsured patients, by the Health Resources and Services Administration’s Provider Relief Fund.
Yes. Early evidence suggests that the vaccine provides more superior protection than the immunity obtained from a previous infection. Follow this link to learn more about this fact and more: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/vaccine-benefits.html
