This is red alert health message: when due, get your second COVID-19 vaccination as soon as possible.
Many received the first shot of a two-part vaccination. But they have delayed getting the second one.
But now there is a recent and urgent development.
In fact, a powerful virus variant is now emerging in the United States. It is known as the Delta variant. And early data indicates that a single vaccine dose limits protection. And a second dose offers much more protection. Therefore, getting both doses is key. So please do not wait.
Experts have identified it as a variant of concern. And worldwide, health officials are on red alert.
The World Health Organization (WHO) issued this brief statement:
Vaccines are key in the fight to end the pandemic. Please get vaccinated as soon as possible. And until fully vaccinated, please follow key preventative steps.
This is a key time. Keep up the fight!
