COVID-19 is especially dangerous to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, so it’s important that we get the COVID-19 vaccine as soon as possible. But a lot of information out there about the vaccine is not written in ways that are accessible to us. That’s why ASAN has released a new plain language and Easy Read fact sheet about the COVID-19 vaccine. This fact sheet answers questions like:

*
Why
should
I
get
the
COVID-19
vaccine?
*
What
will
getting
the
vaccine
be
like?
*
Is
the
vaccine
safe?
*
When
can
I
get
the
vaccine?
*
Do
I
still
need
to
wear
a
mask
after
I
get
the
vaccine?

This new fact sheet is part of a series of resources on COVID-19 that ASAN has created ourselves or in collaboration with partners like Green Mountain Self Advocates and Rooted in Rights. These resources include videos in both English and Spanish [[link removed]] , the plain-language A Self-Advocate’s Guide to COVID-19 [[link removed]] , and our COVID-19 tracker [[link removed]] . We hope you’ll find our new fact sheet helpful and share it with the people in your life.
