Vaccines are safe.
Millions of people have already received their shots under the largest safety monitoring in U.S. history. Most side effects have been mild to moderate.
Vaccines work.
COVID-19 vaccines protect people against severe illness and hospitalization, including disease caused by the delta variant.
Our vaccine information page answers your frequently asked questions about COVID-19 vaccines.
Keep up the teamwork
The Seattle region has saved lives during the COVID-19 pandemic. From the start, we had fewer deaths per capita than any other large metropolitan area. Why? Because we work as a team to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Please continue to protect yourself and your community by getting vaccinated following pandemic safety guidelines.
