| COVID-19 vaccines are effective | |
 |
· COVID 19-vaccines are effective. They can keep you from getting and spreading the virus that causes COVID-19.
· COVID-19 vaccines also help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19. · Getting vaccinated yourself may also protect people around you, particularly people at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19. |
| Delta Variant
The Delta variant causes more infections and spreads faster than earlier forms of the virus that causes COVID-19. It might cause more severe illness than previous strains in unvaccinated people. |
|
|
|
· Vaccines continue to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization and death, including against this variant.
· Fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infections from this variant appear to be infectious for a shorter period. · Get vaccinated and wear masks indoors in public spaces to reduce the spread of this variant. |
| Immune Compromised? We recommend the COVID-19 Booster Vaccine. | |
 |
If you have already had the COVID-19 Vaccine and have a compromised immune system, you can now get a third shot to boost your protection from COVID-19. We strongly recommend you receive the COVID-19 Booster Vaccine. If you would like to schedule your COVID-19 Booster at FAAC, please send us a message through your patient portal. If you go elsewhere for the COVID-19 Booster and are told you need a prescription, please advise us through your patient portal, and we will assist you. |
