There are different kinds of the COVID-19 virus. They are called variants. The Delta variant can spread more easily than the original virus, which is dangerous. That’s why we have released this video and fact sheet about the COVID-19 Delta variant and other variants. This video answers questions like:
Everyone age 16+ can now get a COVID-19 vaccine booster shot 6 months after your 2nd dose of Pfizer or Moderna, or 2 months after your single dose of J&J’s Janssen.
The COVID-19 vaccine is available for children ages 6 months and older. Get kids back to safely being with their family and friends. The vaccine is free, safe and effective.
New COVID-19 County Alert System pinpoints counties with the highest levels of spread and offer recommendations to bring numbers down. The report will be published on the 2nd week of each month (download pdf). Monitor your county's status on the NCDHHS COVID-19 Dashboard.
