I don’t know if it’s a meme/intentional joke or whatever, but I’ve seen a couple posts talking about things people want to do after being vaccinated that are things people miss doing from before covid, and I need to make sure people understand that:
Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccine requires two doses
We do NOT know right now whether vaccinated people will still be able to be carriers of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19). We know from testing that it is over 94% effective at preventing people from having the symptoms of COVID-19, but even vaccinated people might still risk spreading it to people in their community who don’t have the vaccine.
There is no current vaccine for children. It is being developed, but we probably shouldn’t expect it until summer.
We do NOT know right now whether the vaccine will work on the new strains. Experts think it will, but we don’t know, because it wasn’t tested on the new strains.
We do NOT know how long the vaccine’s immunity lasts. They are currently doing testing on that and will be for the next two years. (We also don’t know how long natural immunity lasts, so even if you’ve had COVID-19 before and recovered, you could still potentially get sick again.)
You need to keep wearing a mask, social distancing, limiting time indoors with other people, making sure you have good ventilation, and washing your hands thoroughly and frequently even after you’ve been vaccinated.
