She's in her mid 40's and had light flu like symptoms. Now she's in quarantine at home in Alaska and has to list all the people she was in contact with both in Alaska and Hawaii. So while the vaccines may reduce symptoms of covid you can still get it and spread it.Interesting. Conference, as in a bunch of people from out of state got together in person?
I wonder if some breakthrough cases result from a poor vaccine batch or if it’s entirely due to an individual’s response. This coronavirus is one heckuva nasty bug, for sure.
