===== V-Safe =====

==== What is v-safe? ====
{{ ::v-safe_cdc_flyer.png?400|}}
V-safe provides personalized and confidential health check-ins via text messages and web surveys so you can quickly and easily share with CDC how you or your dependent feel after getting a [[:COVID-19 vaccine]]. 

It takes just a few minutes to enroll and your participation in v-safe helps us **monitor the safety** of COVID-19 vaccines for everyone.


V-safe features:
• Enroll your dependents and complete check-ins on their behalf

• Enter and report how you feel after first, second, additional, and booster doses


=== How can I enroll and how does it work? ===
You can enroll in v-safe after any dose of COVID-19 vaccine by using your smartphone and going to vsafe.cdc.gov.
During the first week after each vaccination, v-safe will send you a text message each day to ask how you are feeling.

After that, you will receive occasional check-ins, which you can opt out of at any time. Depending on your answers, someone from CDC may call to get more information.

Your **personal information in v-safe is protected so it’s safe and private**.

=== How can I enroll my dependent? ===
You can enroll any family member (or friend) who is eligible to be vaccinated in v-safe. Children under 16 years old must be enrolled using a parent or guardian’s v-safe account.

You can **add a dependent** to your existing account or create a new account if you don’t have one yet. Creating an account to enroll a dependent does not require that you enter your own vaccination information or complete health check-ins for yourself.
