COVID-19

COVID-19 Vaccine Information

Muskingum County Emergency Management Agency

Joint Command for COVID 19 


Question: When or how will I know when the vaccine is available for the general public?

Answer: There will be widely publicized announcements in news outlets, social media, and local

businesses. There are multiple locations that have been pre-authorized to provide vaccinations when it

is available to the general public, so it should not be difficult for anyone to receive. 


Question: How much will the vaccine cost?

Answer: There will not out of pocket costs to the costs. The federal government will be covering the

cost of the vaccine for all Americans. 


Question: What are possible side-effects of the vaccine?

Answer: Most people should not have significant side-effects. Mild side effects could include muscle pains, chills, and fatigue. 


Question: Should I get the vaccine even if I had COVID-19?

Answer: Yes. It is not known how effective nor how long-lasting the immunity is from having the actual

disease.
