It's part of my job to travel, which I wasn't able to do for most of last year and potentially this year, for that matter. I'm looking forward to traveling again once I'm vaccinated.
I'm in a long distance relationship. I haven't seen my gf in over a year now. Once her and I have it, as well as those we see regularly/things calm down a bit, yes. Maybe it's still not the wisest thing to do then, but my heart hurts.
Wtf no vaccine is 100% effective....I already got the first dose and are close to receiving the 2nd dose.
And no I won't do any traveling as the vaccine isn't 100% effective or is 100% capable of spreading the disease.
Fuck me where are yall getting this info from out of your asses? There is no I repeat NO definitive statement from any expert that the mRNA vaccines def don't protect you from passing on the virus. We don't have enough data to say thatnah i will wait until it's safe for everyone to start going about normally. i'm in no rush.
the vaccine doesn't stop you getting it or passing it on.
.
Will those places be open now?Yes I will! I try to travel at least 2 times a year. I've got tickets for Tomorrowland in Belgium and EDC in Portugal and I need to have a relaxing break away from this cesspool of a country
This really seems to have become an accepted 'truth' somehow.
Thank you!!!This really seems to have become an accepted 'truth' somehow.
So yes, it's definitely a good idea to still persist taking precautions even when vaccinated, as these areas are still being investigated and it's clearly better to be safe than sorry. But absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence, and given the missteps with 'you don't need a mask' and similar things from earlier in the pandemic, it's best not to say outright things that we don't know yet.
- We know that the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines reduce symptomatic cases of Covid-19 by around 95%.
- We don't know to what extent it stops people getting it completely, as cases in the testing were confirmed via people getting tested if they developed symptoms. However, some data in the reports following both the Moderna and AstraZeneca trials appear to show that there is likely a reduction in asymptomatic cases too.
- It is highly likely that there will be some reduction in transmission / 'passing it on', even if just because less symptoms means less droplets etc, but there is currently no evidence in this area.
Doesn't the pull-quote contain the more in-depth quote you're after?Is there a more in depth version of this quote? The article on CNN doesn't specify if it means the 'whole world' or 'no country' and there's a fairly substantial difference.
I imagine theoretically you don't technically need herd immunity if you're either traveling to areas with a similarly highly immunised zone to where you're from. Obviously masks and social distancing need to stay long term but it's unclear to me exactly what they're stating.
The second it becomes available. While my fiance isn't anti-vax, she's questioned on how quick the turnaround is and has hinted she wants to 'wait'.
I told her the first day available I would take it, and the day after that i would be on a flight to somewhere tropical with our dog sending her selfies of me and him chilling in mankini's (dog-kini's?) at the beach. (she's a huge beach bum)
Yeah, I am catching up on the thread now. Seems that my dreams of travelling are dashed if it would just me being asymptomatic and still a carrier, I didn't know that fact.
If I got the vaccine today nothing would change about my life outside of peace of mind. The US and to a lesser extent world is still shut down and you can still pass it around.
Locally? Once my country finishes the majority of its vaccination, maybe.
Globally? Not sure. I'd like to give countries a chance to finish vaccinating their own citizenry first.
