Vaccines are rolling out in Champaign county, hooray! But don’t throw your masks on the bonfire just yet. Even after receiving both doses of the vaccination, you can still act as a petri dish and carry the virus between unvaccinated people. This means continued masking, distance, and an abundance of care and caution when in public. It looks like those who are completely vaccinated can socialize freely with other vaccinated people, so consider arranging your first get-togethers only with those who are in that same protected category. The finish line is in sight! Hold on a bit longer and we will all cross it together!
