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, the plain-language A Self-Advocate’s Guide to COVID-19, and our COVID-19 tracker. We hope you’ll find our new fact sheet helpful and share it with the people in your life.
