Only through widespread Covid-19 vaccination will we reach herd immunity- where enough

people are immune to stop the disease from spreading freely. To achieve this, while some have
suggested vaccines should be made compulsory, other people are still hesitant to get the shot
even with the push for vaccination. This essay aims to disseminate the pros and cons of
coronavirus vaccines with a view to drawing relevant implications from the discussion.

On the one hand, To begin with, vaccines can ensure the possibility of our reaching herd

can not be vaccinated due to poor health and age rely on community immunity to prevent
themselves from contracting vaccine-preventable diseases. What's more, Covid-19 vaccination
seems to work well against variants. Take Pfizer vaccine as an example, it was effective against
the rapidly-spreading variants, including UK, Brazil and African variants according to a study
published in England. As a consequence, not only can one protect the society he lives in but he is
also able to reduce the risk of passing on the virus to others supposing that he is fully vaccinated.

On the other hand, a large number of people feel too apprehensive and anxious to get vaccinated
on the ground that there is too little information about the long-term effects of the vaccine.
Whereas some people having received Covid-19 vaccine experience side effects like fever,
headache, muscle aches,ect, others do not. Additionally, the United States has received nearly
6,000 reports of death among people who took vaccination mostly due to blood clots and severe
allergies. Those figures imply that whether people would be vaccinated with safety or not is not
guaranteed.
