Even though you need both doses of the vaccine to get the maximum protection, you do receive significant defenses against symptomatic infection after your first dose – a fact that some people are relying too heavily on. After getting our first dose, we’d start receiving invites from friends for indoor gatherings. “Everyone who will be there has had at least one of the shots, so we should be safe.” Uhhh…that’s a pretty big leap. Before our first shots, most of our friends took 110 percent precautions, only meeting outdoors, sitting far apart, and even wearing masks outdoors. Suddenly with 60-ish percent protection they’re being 110 percent unsafe.
