WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET INFECTED?
Most people infected with the virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. However, older people and those with underlying medical conditions like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer are more likely to develop serious illness. Anyone can get sick with COVID-19 and become seriously ill or die at any age.

- Take medicine that you haven’t been prescribed

Vaccines? Explain Like I'm 5....
Vaccines basically train our bodies to fight viruses, and in this case, the Coronavirus. Vaccines contain weak versions of bacteria and viruses. When it gets injected into our body, our body will create specific antibodies that are designed in recognizing and killing the virus. When we get the actual virus, our bodies will be able to defend itself due to the "training" it received from the vaccine.
For some vaccines, the first dose does not provide as much protection as possible. So, more than one dose is needed to build more complete immunity. But at the end of the day, vaccines are the safest way to protect against certain diseases and prevent serious illness.
