Dispelling Misinformation about the COVID19 Vaccine: What Agricultural Producers Need to Know

AgriSafe Network

Dr. Lisa Morici talks about how the vaccines have been developed, the safety and efficacy information from clinical trials, and why vaccination works to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Please listen in so together we can reduce the spread of misinformation and help agricultural communities access the Covid-19 vaccine.

Studies show that COVID-19 vaccines are very effective at keeping you from getting COVID-19. Now that there are authorized and recommended COVID-19 vaccines in the United States, accurate vaccine information is critical. COVID-19 vaccination will be an important tool to help stop the pandemic. None of the COVID-19 vaccines contain the live virus that causes COVID-19 so a COVID-19 vaccine cannot make you sick with COVID-19. While more COVID-19 vaccines are being developed as quickly as possible, routine processes and procedures remain in place to ensure the safety of any vaccine that is authorized or approved for use. Safety is a top priority, and there are many reasons to get vaccinated.

Intended Audience: Agriculture producers, safety and health professionals, health care providers, other people working in agriculture.
