webcomic text:

Immunity won’t be instant.

When it’s your chance to be vaccinated, will you mark your calendar for 2 shots and up to 2 months?

• [indicates first day] First vaccination: You are not immune.
• [indicates 21st or 28th day] Second vaccination: Your body is still learning to fight.
• [indicates 6th to 8th weeks] By these weeks, most people can expect to develop good immunity.

Please continue being as safe as you can even after your first vaccination.

Authors note: A great place to get accurate information about coronavirus vaccines is the CDC’s website. Information for this comic was taken from the CDC’s page on How COVID-19 Vaccines Work.
