The recent wave of COVID-19 in Guangdong has made everyone's relieved spirit tense again, especially Guangdong citizens. However, compared with the epidemic in early 2020, we are nervous and have more confidence. One of the reasons is that we now have the weapon of the new coronavirus vaccine. But it must be reminded that it is not all good to get a vaccine. There are also a few things you must know about the new coronavirus vaccine below.
After getting the COVID-19 vaccine, you need to know the following things.
1) It is recommended not to drink alcohol after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine
Usually experts recommend not to drink alcohol within one week of injecting the COVID-19 vaccine. This is mainly because drinking can easily cause dizziness, chest tightness, , flushing skin, nausea and vomiting. These symptoms are very similar to the adverse reactions caused by the COVID-19 vaccine. In order to distinguish whether it is caused by the COVID-19 vaccine or caused by drinking alcohol, experts recommend not to drink alcohol within one week of injecting the COVID-19 vaccine.
However, many people are particularly addicted to alcohol due to social engagements, or are particularly addicted to alcohol, and they still drink after getting vaccinated. However, if this situation really happens, it does not mean that the vaccine will be invalid, because the instructions for the new coronavirus vaccine do not indicate the taboos for drinking, and the interaction between alcohol and vaccine is not very obvious.
2) You may still be infected after receiving the new crown vaccine
According to the current research data on the new crown vaccine in my country, our new crown vaccine cannot prevent the occurrence of infection by 100%, but it can protect the vaccinated person from being infected to a certain extent and prevent severe illness or death.
People who have been vaccinated, even if they are infected, still have immune memory cells in their bodies. Compared with people who have not been vaccinated, their immune base is still stronger. So vaccination can definitely play a protective role.
3) After receiving the new crown vaccine, the protection period is at least half a year
Some people have heard that the new crown vaccine only has a protection period of half a year. It just so happens that the first batch of vaccinated people are almost half a year. Do you need to re-eat?
In fact, this non-rumor is wrong. The protection period for the new coronavirus is not only half a year at most, but at least half a year, because the clinical research of the vaccine has only been conducted for half a year, and recently various vaccine manufacturers are also conducting clinical research on vaccines, studying when should the injection of enhanced injections be conducted. Because we look at the protective ability of a vaccine not only depends on the amount of antibodies in the body, but also on whether we have immune memory for the vaccine. In this way, even if the antibody is reduced, there is immune memory. As long as one more shot is given, the antibody can be quickly produced in a short period of time, protecting our body from the invasion of viruses.
Therefore, we do not have a clear timetable for specific timetable when we need to be vaccinated, and we need to wait for notification from the disease control department.
4) After receiving the new crown vaccine, you still need to take good self-protection
Some people do not wear masks after being vaccinated and do not wash their hands frequently. In fact, a sufficient number of antibodies will not be produced immediately after vaccination, but will take a period of time. Moreover, the current vaccination rate in our country still cannot meet the requirements of establishing a herd immunity barrier, so there is still a great risk of viral infection. Vaccines are not omnipotent, and the virus mutates very quickly. We can only continue to protect ourselves so that the virus has no chance to take advantage of it, and there will be no chance of mutation or infection.
Conclusion
In short, the new coronavirus is very cunning, and the war with it may be a protracted war. We still need to make full use of vaccines as a powerful weapon to achieve herd immunity to as soon as possible to prevent the virus from raging. If we do not have a correct understanding of vaccines and even hesitate to get vaccinated, in the end if the virus mutates are epidemic, it will be more difficult for us to prevent and control the epidemic in the future.
