Why do you care if others have a more careful approach?
Btw, my daughter has Covid right now after receiving the J&J shot so nothing is full proof. Her room mate who had Covid in December is also positive as a reinfection right now. Caution is not inappropriate just because you personally don't believe it to be needed.
Didn't your daughter get exposed 2 days after the shot? Don't blame the vaccine on that.
And if the roommate is truly reinfected after 3-4 months she is of the rarest of the rare.
You definitely do you and be precautious as you see fit. But we can't blanket policy everyone anymore based on situations like this.
Yes my daughter was exposed quickly after getting the vaccine and that's on her. However for a healthy 24 year old she has been sick as hell with a fever of 103.5 for several days.
Yes, her room mate was both sick and tested positive in December and again this week. It's not as rare as people want to believe which is why caution is warranted.
It's absolutely rare. Very rare. Like 2 in 10,000 rare according to studies.
Bay fan also knows a 24 yr old ultra runner that passed away from covid. Another very rare occurrence. Makes you think
She was a 29 year old transplant nurse with zero underlying conditions except extreme good health. Funny how a normal middle aged woman like me literally knows unicorns like this wonderful young woman who died and currently someone who had it in December who is reinfected when people say neither of these things happen in any significant amount. While Audrey is nothing more then a statistician to some, to her family and friends Covid is very real.
I am thrilled the vaccines are rolling out quickly now and hope the majority of people will get it as soon as possible. In this same group of young women as the reinfection, there was the initial spreader, my daughter who got it shortly after getting the J&J vaccine ( before it had time to work) and two others who got it. The only one who did not get it was finished with the Moderna series. That's promising in my book.
