Dear MEL Topic Readers,
What should you do if you get a breakthrough infection? Our expert weighs in
A breakthrough infection is a COVID case that occurs in someone who is fully vaccinated, which means 14 or more days after completing the recommended doses of an authorized vaccine because it takes time for your immune system to build protective antibodies against COVID. If vaccination doesn’t protect us 100%, why do we need to get vaccinated? That’s because it reduces not only the chance of infection but also the severity of illness. Those who are vaccinated show much milder symptoms even if they contract coronavirus. For example, instead of having breathing trouble that requires oxygen or a ventilator, they may get just body aches, fatigue, and sniffles. As for the protection, vaccination isn’t 100% bulletproof for any situation. If you are exposed to coronavirus too much and for too long, you could get infected. That’s why everyone should be vaccinated. Also, basic protective measures like wearing a facemask, keeping a social distance, and getting fresh air are all important for everyone to avoid contracting the coronavirus.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about what vaccination does to you.
