I was foolish enough to get both pfizer vaccines which my employer (MBB) recommended for all employees to get before returning to the office... well one week later I have tested positive... I have mixed feelings about it all but nevertheless you can still catch it even with the vaccines. Anyone have the same experience?

The vaccines are 95% effective once you have completed 2 weeks following the second dose. Looks like you might have been infected sometime between the first and second dose. 95% is not 100%, much like condoms, sometimes you are in the percentage that didn't get the full protection. If you were not fully vaccinated, meaning 2 weeks following the second dose, then your protection is even lower. Some of the variants are able to get around the vaccines, usually the Brazilian and S. African from what I have read. You should have a mild case of Covid. Here's hoping you have a mild case and a quick recovery without any long term effects.

Real world data show 90% effectiveness. 2 weeks after 2nd dose. So you have 10% chance of catching it, even if you do catch it the vaccine will help reduce the severity of the symptoms. Also depending on the test some have high chances of giving false positives.

I haven't had that experience myself, at least not yet, but 5% of the people in the initial trails still got sick from Covid.

How sick are your? From what I understand, the vaccine doesn't make the virus bounce off of you, it just helps your immune system fight it off. So there may be a lot of vaccinated people carrying the virus without symptoms.

Only symptoms I have are 103 fever and feel like I have a bad head cold. I received the second vaccine 4 weeks ago so I really thought my chances were super slim to catch Covid.

They are, in reality, but again, the variants are circulating and that's a big part of the issue and the reason both Pfizer and Moderna are looking at and testing booster shots to combat the variants. Moderna's booster early info was released the other day and looks very promising.

Condoms are 98% effective against impregnating someone...vasectomies aren't even 100%...sometimes things happen. I'm sorry it happened to you, but it sounds like you're doing well.

Vaccine free mask free and no issues ..

That is one of the many reasons this healthcare worker sticks up his middle finger at the vaccines. They are nothing more than political poison to justify the moron in the White House right now. The previous two were not any better. Thank you to all the vaccinated people for participating in the Gubment Experiment. PS! I wear a surgical mask around sick people, just so you know my position. Covid is real.

I haven’t had either vaccine, and won’t for at least the next 5 years, but I did have the WuFlu last March, and ran a 104° fever for a few days.
Seems like the vaccine is awesome.

Is there a condom booster?

Vasectomy coupled with a condom would probably be the best bet....

Two masks is good... Why not two Jimmy hats?

Friction between the two layers of rubber cause holes to be rubbed.

I know of three people in the last two weeks that have been doing the IVOMEC deal....they got it.

So much misinformation on the Internet.

The Vaccines do not, and have never been to prevent you from getting Covid. They help you fight it off once you get it. They are highly effective at preventing you from having serious reactions from getting Covid 19, and are highly effective at preventing you from dying from Covid 19. Those are the 2 reasons to get the vaccines. You get the vaccine, then you are less likely to have to go to the hospital or the morgue.

In the county I am in, the majority of the new cases and hospitalizations are younger people due to the new variants. We have a long way to go before Covid 19 is a thing of the past.
