Research shows that the COVID-19 vaccine not only prevents infection, but also has other effects is drawing attention.

Another unknown effect of the COVID-19 vaccine is a reduction in its spread.
If you get the vaccine, it lowers the spread of the virus so that it can spread less to other people even if you later become infected with COVID-19.
An Israeli research paper published earlier this month found that groups over 60 who received the Pfizer vaccine saw a 60% reduction in the number of viruses in the nose and throat.
It is estimated that getting the vaccine reduces the number of viruses in the nose and throat and reduces the likelihood of transmission.
Another benefit of the vaccine is that it makes symptoms milder, even if it becomes infected.
According to a study conducted by the University of Edinburgh and health authorities in the UK, the risk of getting seriously worse was reduced by 94% four weeks after the first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine.
The Pfizer vaccine also had a severe prevention rate of 85%.
After comparing clinical trial data of several vaccines such as Pfizer and AstraZeneca on his SNS, the president of Brown University in the United States emphasized the effectiveness of the vaccine to prevent severe deterioration.
As it is still in the early days of vaccination around the world, we cannot guarantee the effectiveness and research results.
However, as research results that give a glimpse of the promising potential come out one after another, expectations for collective immunity are also rising.
