I know the vaccines are very new and in the early days yet. I am interested in learning about covid infections after vaccinations. Is there any data or guidelines.

I became vaccinated thank goodness through my work and it was a good day. I am not in the UK. I am in an eu country and the progress on vaccinations and reopening is much slower.

My partner is now bored and angry at lockdown. I am afraid now for him that he might place himself more at risk of contracting covid and for spreading too especially considering the incubation period is so long and he refuses to use the covid tracking app. I guess he is now more at risk of contracting covid and for spreading ot onwards. Currently we don't live together but we see each other for a walk once or twice a week and sometimes I get a car lift from him.

I have a duty of care in my place of work and I don't want to place anyone at risk. If he is more at risk due to ignoring guidelines, would it mean that I will have to reduce my contact and exposure to him. I really don't want to be in a place of harming other people in my job from the virus.

My daughter is a front line nurse. She had her first vaccine and then caught Covid off a patient. She had a very mild attack, and is now fine. I am very grateful that she caught Covid after her first vaccine, as she has asthma.

Vaccination doesn't stop you catching covid, I'm actually amazed do many people here seem to think its a magical thing that absolutely prevents covid in its tracks

After vaccination, I think you get a milder form of Covid, at least, that is what my daughter has said. I don't think a vaccination will stop you getting Covid, you just get a milder version. I had my second Pfizer vaccine yesterday, much sooner than I thought, about 5 weeks and a couple of days. (over 75 in South Wales)

Thank you for the replies. I will continue with the public health guidelines and cut out indoor environments with him.
