We visited the Free State this past week, in continued efforts to make sure the youth stays healthy and gets vaccinated. Spreading awareness about vaccines still being available and why it's important to #Getvaxxed

The opportunity to learn about the importance of something new, doesn't always have to be one dimensional.

Education and fun can go well together, depending on the strategy. That's why we not only teach the youth the importance of vaccinating...

[Vaxy Nation @vaxynationsa]

Remember, the key to true wealth is health.

Ensure you go regular check-ups and keep a clean bill of health.

Consult your nearest health professional if you feel sick.

Eating a healthy, balanced diet is the most important part of making sure your immune system is strong.

We want to ensure they feel a part of our #VaxyNation.
We want them to know that this initiative is all about ensuring they're able to protect themselves, because there's still so much to be alive and well for.

LET'S TALK COVID-19 FACTS

This is how your body is able to fight disease and virus much faster and effectively. This means you won't experience any severe signs or symptoms of the disease/viruses.

This why it's important to #Getvaxxed #StayProtected #healthawareness

[Vaxy Nation @vaxynationsa]

WHY ARE VACCINES IMPORTANT?

Vaccines train your immune system to recognise and FIGHT viruses/bacteria.

When exposed, antibodies are naturally produced by the immune system to fight diseases/viruses.

*antibodies are the body's soldiers*

DID YOU KNOW?

If a high percentage of the community is vaccinated, it makes it difficult for a disease to spread. This is known as 'herd immunity' and is especially important for those most vulnerable, who are unable to receive certain vaccines.

[Vaxy Nation @vaxynationsa]

The higher the amount of vaccinated individuals, the less likely that individuals who are unable to be protected by vaccines are at risk of being exposed to the harmful pathogens.
