Key takeaways from the podcast discussion:

1. COVID-19 vaccine is generally safe for both older and younger adults. There are safety measures observed before and after a patient gets vaccinated to ensure safety of patient.  

2. Get your Covid-19 information only from proper authorities (WHO, DOH, local medical practitioners). Get your advise only from these professionals to minimize the risks associated with believing in misinformation.

3. Get vaccinated as soon as you can. Having vaccinated immediately increases your body's ability to fight the virus which means you are more equipped to protect yourself and your love ones.

4. Don't let your guard down. Prevention is always better than cure. Even after Covid vaccination, continue observing the health protocols religiously.
