What Will the Guidelines Be Going Forward?
The vaccine rollout now seems to have come to a crawl, with the percentage of those vaccinated vs those unvaccinated barely increasing. This means that the risk still remains real, and with this new variant spreading so quickly, a strain will remain on the health care system, with more hospitalizations, and potentially more deaths. Wearing a mask will still be a necessity depending on the environment you are in, because the more you are around unvaccinated people, the higher your chances will be of getting infected. Also it is good to keep in mind that no vaccine is 100% effective, and another layer of protection is always a good idea.
