Based on what we know about COVID-19 vac- cines, people who have been fully vaccinated can start to do some things that they had stopped do- ing because of the pan- demic. We’re still learning how vaccines will affect the spread of COVID-19. After you’ve been fully vaccinated against CO- VID-19, you should keep taking precautions in public places like wear- ing a mask, staying 6 feet apart from others, and avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces until we know more. Have You Been Fully Vaccinated? People are consid- ered fully vaccinated: •2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, like the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or •2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, like Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine If it has been less than 2 weeks since your shot, or if you still need to get your second dose, you are NOT fully pro- tected. Keep taking all prevention steps until you are fully vaccinated. What’s Changed If you’ve been fully vaccinated: •You can gather in- doors with fully vac- cinated people without wearing a mask. •You can gather in- doors with unvaccinated people from one other household (for example, visiting with relatives who all live together) without masks, unless any of those people or anyone they live with has an increased risk for severe illness from CO- VID-19. •If you’ve been around someone who has COVID-19, you do not need to stay away from others or get tested un- less you have symptoms. However, if you live in a group setting (like a correctional or detention facility or group home) and are around someone who has COVID-19, you should still stay away from others for 14 days and get tested, even if you don’t have symp- toms. What Hasn’t Changed For now, if you’ve been fully vaccinated: •You should still take steps to protect your- self and others in many situations, like wearing a mask, staying at least 6 feet apart from others, and avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces. Take these precautions whenever you are: in public, gathering with unvaccinated people from more than one other household, or visiting with an unvaccinated per- son who is at increased risk of severe illness or death from COVID-19 or who lives with a person at increased risk. •You should still avoid medium or large- sized gatherings. •You should still de- lay domestic and inter- national travel. If you do travel, you’ll still need to follow CDC require- ments and recommenda- tions. •You should still watch out for symptoms of COVID-19, especially if you’ve been around someone who is sick. If you have symptoms of COVID-19, you should get tested and stay home and away from others. •You will still need to follow guidance at your workplace. What We Know and What We’re Still Learning •We know that CO- VID-19 vaccines are effective at preventing COVID-19 disease, es- pecially severe illness and death. We’re still learning how effective the vac- cines are against variants of the virus that causes COVID-19. •We know that other prevention steps help stop the spread of CO- VID-19, and that these steps are still important, even as vaccines are be- ing distributed. We’re still learn- ing how well COVID-19 vaccines keep people from spreading the dis- ease. We’re still learn- ing how long COVID-19 vaccines can protect peo- ple. As we know more, CDC will continue to update our recommenda- tions for both vaccinated and unvaccinated people. Until we know more about those questions, everyone — even people who’ve had their vac- cines — should continue taking basic prevention steps when recommend- ed.
