Why is COVID-19 immunization recommended?
COVID-19 vaccines protect against the SARS-CoV-2 virus (also known as COVID-19). The virus causes an infection in the lungs. In some cases, it can also cause problems with other body organs.
The COVID-19 vaccine does not prevent all infections, but it lowers your risk of severe outcomes such as being in the hospital or death. It can also lower your chance of spreading COVID-19 to others.
Immunization is the best way to protect yourself and others.
