Are your children curious about the COVID-19 vaccine?
We’ve had so many questions asking Nanogirl how the vaccine works that we made a video for kids to help explain the science.
Vaccination is one of the best ways to protect a child from becoming severely unwell due to the COVID-19 virus. COVID vaccines help to teach your immune system to fight the virus, without needing exposure to the virus itself.
Covering:
What is a vaccine, how do they work, what are antibodies, how can vaccines help our immune system, why do we need more than one vaccine?
