GET THE FACTS ABOUT THE COVID-19 VACCINE.




YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS, WE'VE GOT ANSWERS.


HEALTH

The best scientists in the world have answers for all of your questions about
your health, your safety, & the coronavirus vaccine.

WILL THE COVID-19 VACCINE GIVE ME COVID-19?

No. None of the COVID-19 vaccines contain the live virus that causes COVID-19.
The goal for each vaccine is to teach our immune systems how to recognize and
fight the virus that causes COVID-19. Sometimes this process can cause symptoms
such as fever. These symptoms are normal and are a sign that the body is
building immunity.

IF I HAVE ALREADY HAD COVID-19 AND RECOVERED, DO I STILL NEED TO GET VACCINATED
WITH A COVID-19 VACCINE?

Yes, you should be vaccinated regardless of whether you already had COVID-19.
That’s because experts do not yet know how long you are protected from getting
sick again after recovering from COVID-19. Even if you have already recovered
from COVID-19, it is possible—although rare—that you could be infected with the
virus that causes COVID-19 again. Learn more about why getting vaccinated is a
safer way to build protection than getting infected.

 

If you were treated for COVID-19 with monoclonal antibodies or convalescent
plasma, you should wait 90 days before getting a COVID-19 vaccine. Talk to your
doctor if you are unsure what treatments you received or if you have more
questions about getting a COVID-19 vaccine.

 

Experts are still learning more about how long vaccines protect against COVID-19
in real-world conditions. CDC will keep the public informed as new evidence
becomes available.

HOW WILL I KNOW THAT THE COVID-19 VACCINE IS SAFE?

Clinical trials involving many thousands of participants are used to investigate
possible COVID19 vaccines. These studies generate scientific data and other
information that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) uses to determine
vaccine safety and effectiveness. After the FDA makes its determination, an
independent group of scientific experts – the Advisory Committee on Immunization
Practices (ACIP) – reviews available data before making vaccine recommendations
to the CDC. Both of these processes have been completed for three different
vaccines: 

 * Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine
 * Moderna, Inc. Vaccine 
 * Johnson & Johnson/Janssen Vaccine 

That means that the scientific data from the research on each of these vaccines
has been reviewed by two independent teams of experts. Even after this approval,
vaccine safety monitoring systems watch for adverse events (possible side
effects). If an unexpected adverse event is observed, experts quickly study it
further to assess whether it was caused by the vaccine and whether it is a true
safety concern. 

You can read more about the many strategies for ensuring the safety of COVID-19
vaccines in the United States at the CDC’s website:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019- ncov/vaccines/safety.html 

For every vaccine approved for use by the FDA and ACIP, the site provides
information on safety, effectiveness, recommended populations to receive the
vaccine, and side effects, if any

DO THE COVID-19 VACCINES CONTAIN ANY HEAVY METALS (E.G. MERCURY), PRESERVATIVES,
AND/OR ANIMAL BYPRODUCTS?

No.

WERE THE COVID-19 VACCINES MADE IN FETAL CELL LINES?

The mRNA vaccines (those by Pfizer and Moderna) do not contain fetal cells. The
Johnson & Johnson/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine needs special cells in which to grow
the vaccine virus and make the vaccine. These cells were originally isolated
from fetal tissue of a fetus that was aborted in 1985. This cell line, called
the PER.C6 cell line, has been maintained in the laboratory ever since, and no
fetal tissue has been added since the cell line was originally created. In
December 2020, the Vatican advised that a vaccine that is produced with these
cells is “morally acceptable,” because of the “remote” connection of today’s
cell lines to their origin in 1985, and the “grave danger” presented by “the
pandemic spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19.”

REGISTRATION

New Mexico is managing the rollout of this vaccine as quickly as the state
receives doses. Here’s more about how what it means to be registered in New
Mexico’s system.

WHY DO I HAVE TO CREATE A PROFILE?

A profile helps the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) identify that you
are interested in receiving the COVID-19 Vaccine. NMDOH will use your profile
information to connect you to a vaccine provider within your community when the
vaccine is available for you.

HOW WILL THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH USE MY PROFILE INFORMATION?

Your profile information will be used to connect you to a vaccine provider
within your community when the vaccine is available for you. The information
collected in this registration tool will only be accessed by New Mexico
Department of Health and will not be shared outside of public health and the
provider who is administering your vaccine.

I'VE COMPLETED MY PROFILE, WHEN CAN I SCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT?

Great! The New Mexico Department of Health will notify you by text message or
email when vaccine is available for you in your community.

I'VE BEEN WAITING A LONG TIME. WHEN WILL I GET A NOTIFICATION TO SCHEDULE MY
APPOINTMENT?

Please keep in mind the supply of vaccine is extremely limited. The goal is for
everyone to be able to easily get a COVID-19 vaccine when large quantities are
available. Until that time, the New Mexico Department of Health is rolling the
vaccine out in a phased approach. Please visit
https://cv.nmhealth.org/covid-vaccine/ to learn more.

I'VE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO DO?

Please make sure you complete the medical questionnaire on the day of your
appointment. You will not be able to complete the questionnaire until the day of
your appointment.

WHEN WILL I GET MY SECOND SHOT OF PFIZER OR MODERNA?

Once your initial vaccine has been administered, your second appointment will be
scheduled by the system. You will receive your second appointment details via
text message or email. This notification may not be immediate and may be sent a
few days after your initial vaccine was administered.
