    ment through one of the following:
     Capital Area Transportation Authority (CATA) - Call 517-394-2282

    Why should I get a COVID-19 vaccine?


    COVID-19 vaccines will help keep you from getting COVID-19 and may also protect people around
    you. Once you are fully vaccinated, you can start doing more! For example, you can gather indoors
    without masks with other people who are fully vaccinated. By getting your COVID-19 vaccine, you
    can help end the pandemic and get us back to normal! (source: CDC)

    Will I feel sick after getting a COVID-19 vaccine?


    No matter what vaccine you get, it is normal to have mild side effects like fever, chills, fatigue, and
    headache as well as pain and swelling in the arm where you received the vaccine. This is your im-
    mune system learning how to fight the virus, and indicates the vaccine is working. (source: MDHHS)

    Can a COVID-19 vaccine make me sick with COVID-19?


    No. This vaccine gives your body a code which helps it recognize the virus, so your body can fight it
    off in the future. COVID-19 vaccines 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 symp-
    toms are normal and are signs that the body is building protection against the virus that causes
    COVID-19. (source: MDHHS, CDC)

    Do I have to pay for the vaccine?


    No. You will not be charged any fees for the vaccine, regardless of whether you have health insur-
    ance coverage or not. If you do have insurance coverage, the vaccine provider may charge your in-
    surance an administrative fee, but YOU will not have to pay anything. (source: MDHHS)

    Are the COVID-19 vaccines safe?


    Safety is the first priority in vaccine authorization and approval. The FDA has authorized the emer-
    gency use of the COVID-19 vaccines after determining the vaccines meet FDA requirements. And it’s
    important to know that all authorized COVID-19 vaccines were proven to be safe and effective in re-
    ducing the risk of severe illness, hospitalizations and death caused by the virus. While the COVID-19
    vaccines are being developed as quickly as possible, routine processes and procedures remain in
    place to ensure the safety of any vaccine authorized or approved for use. (source: MDHHS)
