My child catching it, potentially from me.

honest question. are you really this thick that you dont understand?


if you are 100% vaccinated you can still catch the virus. however you have like a 90%+ chance of only having very mild to mild symptoms. this does not mean you cant pass it on to someone you have come in contact with. that person may not be vaccinated and that person could also have very mild to mild symptoms or it can be a lot more severe


it would be easier to know who you could be around by each person having a V or a NV stamped on their head to show their vaccination status and know who is more vulnerable

And the NV’s can just stay at home

I took the vaccine. Looks like I get to say whatever I want.

you can do that without the vaccine. how people react to it is a different story

How about we use a gold star on the sleeve instead of a "NV" on their face?

It was basically a mild cold for me: sore throat and some nose stuff and is pretty much over at this point.

That simultaneously sucks and is good news. Focusing on the good, I'm glad to hear it was over quick.

Yeah it was really no big deal. The worst part was telling people I've been around in the last week and them needing to go get tested. Thankfully it was only 4 people and they're also vaccinated, so hopefully they'll all be okay too.

Why did you bother getting tested? Are you going to get tested whenever you get a cold? Not sure I see what the point of the testing industrial complex is.

I wouldn't have if it were earlier in the summer but I was supposed to go back to work today. Honestly I thought I'd test negative and that would be that.

About 3 weeks ago my wife and I had a really bad "cold" that lasted about a week. We are fully vaccinated so it didn't register it could have been COVID. But it was runny nose and chest congestion which weren't symptoms (traditionally) of COVID. I'm now reading that the Delta variant has these symptoms, so now I'm thinking we may have had it as well.

How many hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of vaccinated people thought exactly like this? I certainly would. Taking waning immunity into account, which will only accelerate, the 'breakthrough infections' rate is potentially in the double digits.
