[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 8274007, member: 7808"] Just so you are aware, your recomendations are the opposite of what my children's health care professional says on the matter: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.chop.edu/centers-programs/vaccine-education-center/making-vaccines/prevent-covid[/URL] "Does a vaccinated person present a risk to an unvaccinated family member in the same house? Vaccinated people do not shed virus as a result of vaccination. Neither the mRNA nor the adenovirus vaccines are composed of live viruses, so there is no infectious virus to spread from a vaccinated person to someone else. But we do not yet know if a vaccinated person who encounters the virus can still experience what is referred to as “asymptomatic infection.” An asymptomatic infection occurs when a person is exposed to the virus in the community and the virus can still replicate in their body, but they don’t have symptoms because their immune system stifles the infection as a result of vaccination. In this scenario, the person could potentially spread the virus without even knowing they are infected. While it is not anticipated that vaccinated individuals will be likely to spread the virus even if they experience asymptomatic infection, this has not yet been shown to be the case. Therefore, we need to practice caution until we know for certain. Given that families and friends will not all be vaccinated yet, vaccinated individuals should continue to follow public health guidance when they are out in the community to decrease the chance of introducing the virus in the home through asymptomatic infection." I understand that your conclusions are hopeful. It is highly likely that you will be proven correct some time next month, next week, or even tomorrow. But when I have to choose between preliminary data from some guy on the internet and the recomendations of my kid's doctor, I listen to the doctor. [/QUOTE]
