You do hope people actually pay attention to the news, updates and forums - but you just have to shake your head.
In short, the vaccine is there to prevent serious symptoms from occuring. Although vaccinated, you can still catch the virus, display symptoms and possibly still transmit it. A similar way the annual flu vaccine works. |

You are twenty times less likely to display symptoms if you have been vaccinated than if you haven't had the vaccine. If we had been in that situation last March this we would be talking about covid being a mild flu. |

No. My understanding is that the vaccine stops you getting serious symptoms of covid - but you can still be infected and pass it on to others. So they could still be a carrier and pass it to me, and I am vulnerable.
I will not be meeting anyone for sex until I and all the other vulnerable people in my family have been vaccinated - as a bare minimum! |

The main effect of the vaccine doesn't kick in until there have been more than 50% of the population vaccinated. This is where "vaccine herd immunity" starts to have a noticeable action. The people that are vaccinated are (a) somewhat less likely to catch it, (b) somewhat less likely to have serious symptoms if they do catch it, (c) somewhat less likely to build up a high viral load, (d) somewhat less likely to be coughing out viral particles, (e) likely to have a somewhat shorter infectious period. All of which means that fewer non-vaccinated people are liable to catch it. Which means that there will be fewer people passing it on. Which means that still fewer people are liable to catch it, etc. And because there are fewer people suffering serious symptoms, those who do get it bad can be given more hospital care without blocking all the ITU beds. Which means that those suffering from heart attacks, cancer, road accidents can be looked after better. Etc etc etc.
And at that point meeting other people for social reasons starts to become safe because instead of approx 1 in every 30 people you are in the same building as being currently infected, it is only 1 in every 3,000 or 1 in every 30,000 who are currently infected. |

"As people who work in care have started to get vaccines, would that open it up for you to have sex with them?"
no you should still continue to wear masks.. keep social distancing.. wash hands and not meet others except with the few exemptions allowed

. Basically though if two people who have been vaccinated get together, as long as they subsequently keep away from anyone else for the quarantine period there won’t be a problem because that is as safe as it’s ever going to be. |

Does having a vaccine suddenly make them open their legs for any stray penis. I'm sure that's not its purpose  |
