What to Know About the COVID-19 Vaccine
In December 2020, the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines produced by Pfizer and Moderna were both granted FDA emergency use authorization. Following this, the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was approved in February 2021. Below is some important information about the COVID-19 vaccines:
- The mRNA vaccines were both found to be over 94% effective in preventing COVID-19.
- The vaccines CANNOT give you COVID-19 and will not alter your DNA.
- Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines require two doses to create a robust immune response. The Pfizer doses must be administered about 21 days apart and Moderna doses must be administered 28 days apart.
- The mRNA Vaccines become fully effective about 10 days after the second dose; however, it is still important to continue social distancing and mask-wearing even after being vaccinated.
Anyone over the age of 12 is now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination in Los Angeles.
Bottom Line
To date, there have been 45.5 million doses of the vaccines administered in California. At this time, 53.2% of people in California are fully vaccinated, which is higher than the national vaccination rate.
There is no fee to get vaccinated whether you have insurance or not. Before attending your appointment, you can call to confirm this with your provider. As cases begin to surge again, it is important to get vaccinated as soon as possible.
