Vaccine Against COVID-19
People over the age of 12 should be vaccinated against COVID-19, and must show proof of vaccination in order to participate in any indoor or outdoor activity. COVID-19 outbreaks have been associated with serious illness, such as respiratory failure, damage to heart and lung muscle, and kidney failure. If you or someone you love is experiencing any of these symptoms, you should contact your health care provider immediately.
COVID-19 is a global public health challenge and requires a global response. This outbreak threatens the lives of people around the world, including Americans. President Biden recently announced that the United States will donate 1.2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccine to countries around the world. This announcement is just one example of how the United States is using its diplomatic leadership to mobilize the global community to address the pandemic. It is also strengthening its global biosecurity infrastructure.
