1. Prevent you from contracting COVID-19 or becoming seriously ill or dying from the disease
2. Prevent you from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19 to others
3. Increase the number of people in the community who are protected from COVID-19, which makes it difficult for the disease to spread and thus contribute to herd immunity
4. Prevent the virus that causes COVID-19 from spreading and reproducing, allowing it to mutate and possibly become more resistant to vaccines.
