I’ve had a few people reach out and ask how someone can still spread COVID-19 even though they have already had it or have received the vaccine.
Let’s talk about infection vs disease. 🧐
The COVID-19 vaccine is officially approved and available in the U.S.
Sweet!
Right on cue, some related conspiracy theories are gaining momentum. The COVID-19 vaccine is an easy target for a few reasons. It was made from the ground up in nine months when typical vaccines take at least ten years, it is the world’s first mRNA based vaccine, and lastly, it’s a vaccine. All vaccines are conspiracy theory magnets.
Let’s talk about them!
There’s been a lot of buzz in the news lately about a vaccine for COVID-19. Two different companies (Pfizer and Moderna) are very close to having an effective COVID-19 vaccine ready for distribution. That’s two different versions of the vaccines that should be available within the next month! And there are a few other companies that are getting close to having a vaccine ready within the coming months as well.
AWESOME!
