How do I know if a coronavirus vaccination is safe?

It is normal for some people to wonder if a coronavirus vaccination is safe. There have been so many different messages spread on the subject. That’s confusing. A vaccine may only be used if it has been approved. In the Netherlands this is done by the Medicines Evaluation Board (CBG). They assess the vaccines.

This is done in the Netherlands but also in other European countries. This means we quickly find out the results of new studies.
