Understanding Covid 19 Vaccine Safety and Protective Efficacy

Originally Recorded on September 17, 2021

This new training meets the new DC Covid-19 training requirement.

Do you have questions about the Covid-19 vaccine? Are you unsure of the benefits of the vaccines? Concerned about it's safety? Are you struggling with helping your clients or patients understand the benefits of the vaccines? This new training with vaccine development specialist Dr. Robert Edelman, MD, will answer many of the questions that people have regarding the Covid-19 vaccines.  

Among the topics addressed will be why some people get sicker from Covid than others, and what we know about how long the vaccine lasts. We will also discuss the Delta variant and why it changed our lives suddenly after dealing 17 months with the earlier covid strains. 

What is mRNA and does it affect my DNA? If I already had Covid should I get vaccinated? Do I still need two doses, or maybe just one? This brand new training meets the new DC Covid-19 training requirement. Earn 2 CE credits.
