Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect your health. Vaccines work with the body’s natural defences to develop protection against a disease. COVID-19 vaccines provide instructions to your body’s immune system to recognize and fight off the virus that causes COVID-19.
Vaccines Work
Scientific and medical evidence show that vaccination can help protect you and people you come into contact with against COVID-19.
Studies are also showing that vaccinated people may have less severe illness if they do become ill from COVID-19.
Vaccines Are Safe
Only vaccines that are proven to be safe, effective and of high quality are authorized for use in Canada. The COVID-19 vaccines have been rigorously tested during their development and then carefully reviewed by Health Canada.
The vaccines cannot give you COVID-19 because they don’t contain the virus that causes it. The vaccines also cannot change your DNA.
mRNA vaccines provide instructions to your cells for how to make a coronavirus protein. This protein will trigger an immune response that will help to protect you against COVID-19.
