 Vaccination is a more reliable way to build protection

The level of protection people get from having COVID-19  may vary depending on how mild or severe their illness was, the time since their infection, and their age; and there is still not an antibody test available that can reliably determine if a person is protected from further infection.

• All steps have been taken to ensure that vaccines are safe and effective for people ages 5 years and older.
• If you already had COVID-19, you should still get a COVID-19 vaccine for added protection.
• When you are up to date on COVID-19 vaccination, you can resume many activities with proper precautions (e.g., mask wearing in indoor public spaces).

• Hundreds of millions of people in the India have received COVID-19 vaccines under the most  program in Indian history.
• A growing vaccine safety shows that the benefits of COVID-19 vaccination outweigh & recommends an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (Covaxin or Covishield) in most circumstances based on an updated risk-benefit analysis.

Before recommending COVID-19 vaccines, including for children ages 5 years and older, scientists conducted clinical trials with thousands of adults and children and found no serious safety concerns.
