Vaccines can be prophylactic or therapeutic. Vaccines are like soldiers developed internally ready to protect your body from infections.

Coronavirus is an infectious disease. It is a SARS-CoV-2, that has caused a pandemic of respiratory infection, named COVID-19. It is spread from person to person through the breath, talk, cough, sneeze and due to touch with infectious hands of the affected person. This is a mutating virus resulting in various symptoms like cough, fever, body ache, breathing issue, loss of smell and taste, conjunctivitis, skin rashes, nausea, diarrhea, sore throat, fatigue and we keep getting new symptoms due to mutations in the virus.
What’s The Solution? Vaccination
The world has stopped. The only effective tool to fight against this pandemic is Vaccination. Vaccination helps us against the coronavirus as soon as we come in contact with it. It uses our body’s natural defense to build resistance to coronavirus infection. It helps the body create antibodies that build a stronger immune system. It is like a missile system built to guard to destroy the enemy before it enters our system.
Vaccines contain weakened or killed forms of germs like bacteria and viruses that’s why people tend to fall for misconceptions. These bacteria’s introduce our body to the corona virus and help them to understand and create antibodies against the strain. They do not cause the disease or risk any kind of complication.
This covid-19 vaccine not only protects us, but also our loved ones and everyone around us from getting infected and spreading it. Some conditions like pregnancy or certain severely ill people are not assigned for vaccination. In such cases, they depend on the rest of us to get vaccinated and reduce the risk factor for them.

Our natural defense mechanism builds antibodies for these viruses and bacteria. Once the virus enters our body, our body system knows it and attacks the virus to destroy it before it makes you ill.
Prevention is always better than cure. Rather than struggling to cure this coronavirus after infection one should get vaccinated and cleverly defeat the strain of this deadly virus.
One can face post-vaccine symptoms like fatigue, fever, body pain, but these are the symbol of bodies reaction in accepting the vaccine. These are not dangerous, and one can recover within two days with simple medication. Don’t feel afraid and restrain yourself from taking a second dose. These two doses of vaccine can provide your immunity for a long period from coronavirus.
