Depending on what shot you got, you might have been safe for quite a while. From the Moderna document that they supplied to the FDA during the emergency approval process. CoVid incidence after the first shot tracks the placebo group until day 10-14, and then just goes away (almost zero new cases).Woo Hoo, just got back from getting my second shot.
Two more weeks and I'm a safe as I can get.

In a time when we get text and email as well as news reports of a strange car driving down the street,Seems a tad inconsistent to me. If they can't get their word out, what's stopping their friends and acquaintances from doing so? Who's doing the "blocking?"

Why do you think we have AIS and DSC???????I’m ready to return to the good old days of old fashioned gossip and rumors instead of the current crop of hoaxes and conspiracy theories. Maybe someone will post about the tracking chips embedded in sailboats. Seems equally plausible
that's only the ones you know about.Why do you think we have AIS and DSC???????
All well and good. But what if you have been vaccinated? Reportedly CDC says there is a 0.0075% chance you can have COVID. What will the test show? A false positive?From Covid-19 Testing Required for U.S. Entry (state.gov) : Effective January 26, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will require all air passengers
If that happens, buy a lottery ticket, because you are beating the odds.All well and good. But what if you have been vaccinated? Reportedly CDC says there is a 0.0075% chance you can have COVID. What will the test show? A false positive?
Haven’t followed the whole discussion but given the historical data on flu vaccinations which indicates only half the population receives it, it seems like a frivolous goal someone set arbitrarily to expect anything greater with Covid. Too many are afraid to get it or simply are ambivalent. Reality never was an obstacle to government’s setting of goals.. There is a good chance the US will achieve 50% very soon............but will it achieve 60+% vaccinated and do we have to wait for the number of non-vaccinated people to...

In an ideal world, maybe but vaccinations aren’t a prerequisite for school. I know of kids who’s parents are not vaccinated against anything who attend school in various states. Some religions are ant-vaccinations. Some people cannot be vaccinated for legitimate medical reasons. And still others already have immunity, at least as temporary as the current crop of vaccinations, because of past Covid 19 infection.High vaccination rates are achievable, even though the anti-vaxxers protest, we achieve high levels of childhood vaccinations because vaccinations are required for school attendance.
Apply the same standards to adults, you want to work here? Get a vaccination. You want to go out to eat? Get a vaccination. You want to go to the movies, concert, stage show? Get a vaccination.

No point in waiting, at that point. Sitting at home or wearing masks and maintaining 6' distance while you wait for non-vaccinated population to catch it and achieve herd immunity won't see any less people getting Covid than opening it up right away. The only things to wait for is for the population respond to whatever information/promotion campaign is being pushed and get vaccinated and to allow down the pandemic so it doesn't overwhelm the Healthcare system.and do we have to wait for the number of non-vaccinated people to get Covid before the CDC declares "herd immunity" and allows resuming pre-pandemic life without restrictions and masks
In NY you must have a certain set of vaccinations or you will not be allowed to attend school. Recently those rules have been tightened with some exemptions eliminated.In an ideal world, maybe but vaccinations aren’t a prerequisite for school.
