Even if there is no bonus, we will fight! Vaccination is in response to national policy and can also prevent the high incidence of severe illness. The main reasons are as follows.

01, the elderly should also be "responsive" as soon as possible

The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention released the "Popular Questions and Answers on COVID-19 Vaccination for the Elderly" on April 5. In view of the current situation that the vaccination rate of the new coronavirus vaccine among the elderly in some areas of my country is still relatively low, experts from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention suggest that for elderly people who have not yet been vaccinated or have not received a "booster shot", if there are no absolute contraindications to the vaccine , it is recommended to take the initiative to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

02, vaccination with a booster shot can reduce the risk of death from severe disease by more than 90%

Experts from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention said that after the elderly receive a booster shot, they are less likely to suffer from severe and severe disease caused by the new coronavirus infection. The risk of death can be reduced by more than 90%, and booster shots are necessary for the elderly. Based on the research results on the safety, immunogenicity, effectiveness, and durability of immunity of the vaccine, at this stage, my country recommends vaccination for people over 18 years old 6 months after completing basic immunization with inactivated vaccine and adenovirus vector vaccine. The vaccine-based booster immunization has been implemented across the country.

03, the elderly need to actively seek the protection of the new crown vaccine

The elderly must receive the new crown vaccine during the stable period of the disease. If you are not sure when, you should consult a doctor; If you are suffering from underlying diseases and are in an unstable state, vaccination should be postponed until the condition is stable before going for vaccination. Some people with chronic basic diseases, such as diabetes and hypertension, may relapse frequently, but as long as their physical condition is not particularly unstable, they can be vaccinated. Because people with these basic diseases are often the ones who are prone to severe cases of COVID-19 once infected.
