As more and more people are eligible to be vaccinated, we have more and more questions! So if you've received the vaccination already, can you finally travel? Hang with friends?
Sisanie broke down all the do's and don'ts you need to know. Watch back the on-air moment above and check out the most frequently asked questions below:
How long does it take to build up immunity to COVID-19 after receiving the vaccine? Two weeks, according to the CDC website
Can I hang out with my friends or family if I'm fully vaccinated? Yes! If everyone is vaccinated, you can hang out indoors in private spaces like your home with no masks. But, you still need to wear a mask in public!
If I've been exposed to someone who has COVID-19 after I've been fully vaccinated, do I have to stay away from others or get tested? Not unless you have symptoms, though you should consider staying home and getting tested anyway.
Can I still get Covid if I get the vaccine? It's possible but not likely. Although the severity of the illness, were you to get it, should be lessened.
How long does protection from a COVID-19 vaccine last? Some amount of time between three months and two years.
Is it safe to travel after I get the COVID-19 vaccine? Not quite yet. You should still avoid or delay non-essential trips. But if you are going to travel, definitely wait those full two weeks after your last vaccination.
