Healthcare Norms
Health institutions and health workers are on the front lines of the fight against COVID-19. Our efforts to curtail the spread of the virus hinge on the adaptability and commitment of our health workers and institutions. At the same time, they need protection from infection and form the stigma and discrimination that comes from the fear of the virus. This section contains health-care communication materials developed and used by USAID partners as well as other government and non-government agencies that empower health professionals and institutions to address this emergency as well as to help them get the respect and support they deserve.
How COVID-19 Viral Vector Vaccines Work
Centre for Disease Control
India is administering the vaccine developed using the viral vector process. This poster clarifies that such vaccines use a harmless version of a different virus, called a vector, to deliver information to the body that helps it protect the beneficiary. It also clarifies that such a vaccine does not contain the virus that causes COVID-19 and cannot give the beneficiary the infection. This poster can be displayed in healthcare facilities, vaccination sites, clinics and residential complexes.
