After you get the COVID-19 vaccine, you have the option to sign up for v-safe. V-safe is a smartphone-based tool that checks in on how you're doing. It also reminds you to get your second dose if you still need it.
Through text messages and web surveys, you can quickly tell the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) if you have any side effects after getting the vaccine. COVID-19 vaccines are already safe and help your body fight off the virus. Your responses on v-safe help make them even better.
