Do I need to wear a mask and still avoid close contact after receiving 2 doses of the vaccine.
Yes.
While experts learn more about the protection that COVID-19 vaccines provide under real-life conditions, it will be important for everyone to continue using all the tools available to us to help stop this pandemic, like covering your mouth and nose with a mask, washing hands often, and staying at least 6 feet away from others.
Together, COVID-19 vaccination and following CDC’s recommendations for how to protect yourself and others will offer the best protection from getting and spreading COVID-19.
Experts need to understand more about the protection that COVID-19 vaccines provide before deciding to change recommendations on steps everyone should take to slow the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19. Other factors, including how many people get vaccinated and how the virus is spreading in communities, will also affect this decision. |
Tell that to the old guy who was on line behind my husband at Panera Bread just a little while ago. He came within one foot behind my husband as he stood on line. Hubby asked him to please step back to leave 6 feet. The old guy's answer....."Get over it. Get over it".
It is people with attitudes like this old guy that has put our country in the dire mess it is in now with this pandemic. Thanks. NOT!!!!!
