The COVID-19 vaccination enables your body to build specific immune defences against the virus. When the body is exposed to the virus it can then tackle it and prevent you from getting ill. In other words, the vaccination strengthens and trains your immune system to target and deal with the coronavirus.

In Switzerland, every vaccine has to be authorised. This means it must meet stringent safety, efficacy and quality requirements. Swissmedic, the Swiss agency for the authorisation and supervision of therapeutic products, has closely examined and approved the vaccinations for COVID-19. They are safe and they work.
