| | As of April 2021, nearly 124 million people in the US—more than 37% of the total population—have received at least one dose of one of the three COVID-19 vaccines that have been granted emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For many, the release of the vaccines seems like the first step back to normal, pre-pandemic life. But despite our slow crawl back to in-person socialization, we're nowhere near herd immunity (aka, when enough people in a population have been vaccinated so that person-to-person transmission is unlikely). According to medical experts, 70-90% of the population will need to be vaccinated to halt the spread of the virus. Not only can vaccines help us reach herd immunity, but they can prevent new, more dangerous variants from emerging. For these reasons, getting the vaccine is a public health imperative. Whether you or someone you know is wary of the vaccine or simply wants to understand more about it, check out the articles below that address how the vaccine was made so quickly, what to do with your vaccine card, and what exactly is safe to do before and after the vaccine. | | | Our Must-Read Vaccine Stories | | | | | | | |
