Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a highly infectious respiratory disease. Although in most cases infected people experience mild to moderate symptoms, those with underlying health conditions can develop more serious illnesses.
The virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose or mouth and is why safety protocols are important, such as social distancing and wearing a mask.
We understand that some people are concerned about getting the COVID-19 vaccine. However, all COVID-19 vaccines currently available in the US have shown to be highly effective at preventing the virus.
If you are worried about receiving the vaccine, speak to a medical professional. To see if you are eligible for the current priority group and to register for the vaccine, clink on the button below.
