Protect yourself and the community

• vaccination is the most effective way to protect against infectious diseases

• vaccines strengthen your immune system by training it to recognise and fight against specific viruses

• when you get vaccinated, you are protecting yourself and helping to protect the whole community

• when enough people in the community are vaccinated, it slows down the spread of disease

Reduce the health, social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic

• make outbreaks much less likely

• reduce the need for preventive measures, such as lockdowns, border closures and travel restrictions, and

• help save lives and livelihoods

If you are unsure when you can get vaccinated or what vaccination you should take, consult with your doctor.
