COVID-19 Infection vs. Vaccine

⚡️ Long-term symptoms and potential health issues after recovering from Covid-19 include: shortness of breath, Permanent loss of smell and taste, lasting damage to the heart muscle(increase the risk of heart failure or other heart complications), lung scarring and increased the risk of developing Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.

⚡️ COVID-19 vaccine side effects are generally rare and mild. However, common side effects after vaccination include temporary fatigue, fever, and muscle soreness at the injection site, all of which are far less harmful than the virus itself and should pass in a couple days. More serious side effects are possible but extremely rare.

⚡️ The protection offered by the FDA-approved and authorized vaccines is very powerful, but it starts to weaken after 6 months, requiring you to get booster to extend the protection. Taking a Pfizer or Moderna as a booster regardless of whatever vaccine you took prior, increases protection level to 90%, and offers greater protection against the delta and omicron variants.

Much is still unknown about how COVID-19 will affect people over time, so protect yourselves!
