Can I spread the Coronavirus after I get vaccinated?
While you can technically spread the virus after you've been vaccinated, chances are slim, according to the Associated Press. There's also the slight possibility that you can become infected without showing any symptoms. Currently, the vaccines are effective at preventing people from getting severely sick with the virus.
What should I do after I get vaccinated?
Experts urge people to continue wearing masks and social distancing in public when surrounded by others who might not be vaccinated, according to the Associated Press. Dr. Robert Gallo, a virus expert at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, claimed that the vaccine is incredibly important, but not ultimately not a "cure-all."
How long are you protected after you're vaccinated?
The million-dollar question. According to the Seattle Times, this is something researchers are still trying to uncover.
I've already had COVID-19. Should I get vaccinated?
The CDC suggests that you get the vaccine, as medical experts are unsure how long you are protected from getting sick again.
Who should I consult with Coronavirus-related questions?
If you're wondering how to keep yourself and your family safe during this challenging time, it's crucial to consult your doctor. However, other resources can assist with questions that might arise.
