Essentia Health Discusses and Debunks Myths About COVID-19 Vaccines

Although the amount of COVID-19 vaccines administered increases each day, some people still worry about their safety. Essentia Health had a conference Wednesday discussing some myths about the vaccines.

One of the most shared worries is how quickly vaccines passed through tests. While officials understand people’s worries, they really wanted to express how safe the vaccine is.

They also mention, just like any vaccine, there are side effects, but none are out of the norm. Most vaccines study 20,000 to 30,000 participants, but for COVID-19 vaccines alone, more than 75,000 people were studied.
