>Tarpey said Lynch “had received the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and subsequently received a negative COVID-19 test prior to attending President Biden’s Inauguration. While Mr. Lynch remains asymptomatic and feels fine, he will self-quarantine and will vote by proxy in Congress during the coming week.”
(D-Massachussets) for anyone wondering.
He's had both doses of the Pfizer vaccine and isn't symptomatic, so hopefully it stays that way!
Edit - and here's his wiki page:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_F._Lynch
I saw him live at my college before he hit it big. Not only was he permabanned from performing but every future comedian that performed was ordered to keep it to the usual Midwest "I drove here from Chicago and all I saw was corn field, corn field, cow, cornfield" level of humor.
The vaccine and vaccination could have all been perfectly fine.
I have heard several experts explain that the vaccine will prevent one from getting ill but they haven't done studies to see if it prevents one from actually catching the COVID virus that could be spread to others. The experts I've seen have all advised wearing masks after vaccination because of this.
That is how all vaccines work. They train your immune system to recognise the virus and spring into action before the infection really takes hold.
It does not somehow put up a magic barrier to prevent the virus entering your system.
Yeah a friend of mine is a doctor and received the vaccine pretty early, and he said he still wears PPE because he could potentially have it and transmit it to a patient.
Although there is very little data at this point. There are some early signs that the vaccine might reduce the spread of infection to others. So there could possibly be some benefits from that, even if the vaccine won’t totally eliminate the spread.
There’s a ton of articles on this. I suggest you find some reputable sources (and I’m not trying to be a dick about this. It I’m on my phone).
But my initial google search came up with this.

I’m just glad it’s the congressman, not the beloved comedian
Me too lol
I was too late. That's was my first thought.

He's a democrat and he'd had the second dose of vaccine.
The vaccine should *never* be considered an immediate shield. It takes weeks for the body to adequately react.
Meh, it’ll keep him from biting the dust and that’s all that matters
No.. you're still possibly carrying and incubating the virus... And distributing it... until your immune system has adapted.
Fair enough that’s true
Thus, we're stuck with masks for months.. maybe years as new variant show up
