 Vaccine Hesitancy of Covid 19 

Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is a personal choice. People have already started getting vaccinated. But there is still some hesitancy to vaccines.

                           

Vaccine Hesitancy refers to delay in acceptance for getting vaccinated or refusal of vaccines.

                                                              

What are the causes of covid-19 vaccine hesitancy? 

Vaccine hesitancy is caused by various factors such as complacency, convenience, and confidence.

 

Concerns about unknown future effects, side effects, and a lack of trust are the most common reasons. Disinformation and rumours through social media make people lose confidence. Lower levels of education and poor access to accurate information, and lack of effective public health messages or targeted campaigns is another reason for vaccine hesitancy.

Vaccines boost your immune system so your body will be ready to fight the coronavirus

COVID-19 vaccine can protect you from becoming sick.

 

Side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine are temporary, you might experience a painful arm, a mild fever, or body aches, but this doesn’t mean you have COVID-19. They are signs of the response of your body’s immune system as the vaccines do not contain live coronavirus. If you already had COVID-19, getting the vaccine will add extra protection.

 

Who can get the vaccine?     

COVID-19 affects everyone. So everyone should get vaccinated. People with conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and heart and respiratory conditions can still get a vaccine

Scientists made clinical trial practices for the vaccines. Although the vaccines have not yet been tested in pregnant women, So they can be vaccinated by the consultation of a doctor. The vaccines are safe for breastfeeding mothers and do not harm a woman’s ability to become pregnant.

 

However, if you are severely allergic to any of the coronavirus vaccines’ ingredients, you should not be vaccinated.

 

More vaccinations for COVID-19 mean a chance to return to normal. COVID-19 vaccines cannot end the pandemic. It can be achieved when communities accept to receive them.

 

So get vaccinated. Protect yourself. Protect your community. Allow public health to be better

Is drug allergy genetic? Drug allergies are abnormal reactions of the immune system to a medication. In many cases, the allergic reactions are mild. Severe cases can lead to shock and may be life-threatening. Though certain reactions are mostly incalculable, genetic polymorphisms of specific genes can drive patients to allergy. These genetic allergies causing victims usually show familial and ethnic clustering. This is why we regularly observe doctors questioning for a family history of any drug allergy.

In recovered patients, long Covid or Covid sequelae can arise. First, the most common side effects mentioned are fatigue or muscle weakness, dyspnea, joint pain and chest pain, sleep difficulties, anxiety or depression, and a decreased quality of life. The virus causes a cytokine storm and hyper inflammation in the immune system, which leads to additional multi-organ damage and death. Neurological issues , such as headaches, dizziness, difficulties concentrating, memory problems, diminished smell or taste, weakness, or muscle pain, affect at least one-third of patients with COVID-19. According to study, persons who recover from COVID-19 have immunity to the virus for 3 to 5 years. Immunity can develop naturally after contracting COVID-19 or as a result of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.
