  • If you get infected with the virus, it will go all over your body and stay there for at least a week and will be much more likely to cause you long term problems than the vaccine.
  • If you get the vaccine, it will prime your immune system, but then the vaccine is gone. It will not be with you anymore.
  • More than 95% of the doctors who have provided the vaccine have gotten it as soon as they possibly could.
  • The more we vaccinate, the faster we can get back to growing our economy and getting jobs.
  • If people get vaccinated, we are going to save at least 100,000 lives of Americans who otherwise would have been killed by the COVID-19 virus.
