What do you think counts as being "fully vaccinated" of the covid 19 vaccine?

[PrincessNutNuts]

One dose?

Two doses?

Three doses? (Two plus the booster)

Don't know

YouGov is asking this again today, so I thought I'd post it here.

According to the Scottish Government website you now need 3 doses to be considered fully vaccinated so I imagine it will be the same everywhere else soon.

With reference to the recent changes in guidelines for rediction in isolation to 7 days it says:

"Any close contact who is not fully vaccinated (three doses) will still have to self-isolate for the 10 days and take a PCR test."

Minimum of 14+ days after second dose

But I think the definition is moving to 14+ days after third.

Having had the vaccines available to you unless there's a medical reason not to.

You've had all the doses that are available to you based on current guidelines. So for most adults in the UK that will be 3. For 16/17 year olds that will be 2, and for 12-15 year olds that will be 1 or 2, depending on whether they were able to get their first vaccine fairly early on.

16 years and over 3 doses
12 to15 years 2 doses

I haven't had the booster yet but I consider myself fully vaccinated as the guidelines for England still say I am.

^ ^ Same.

it doesn't matter what I think the words mean. I don't make the rules.

Fully vaccinated is two plus booster for adults. Unsure if it is two weeks after booster or not (Scotland).

Bolstered.

Bolstered even.

Predictive text . 2 jabs plus booster.

Yes, this.

Yes. I think it will switch to this pretty soon.

As soon as by the end of this month perhaps.

Here's YouGov's result:

At the moment two doses, they haven't included the booster as part of the fully vaccinated status yet .

Or one dose of Janssen

Didn’t they say they’d change it to three doses once everyone had been offered a reasonable chance to get them?
Pretty much everyone I know in my age group has been boosted very recently so I guess they’ll announce something maybe end of the month - effective a month later? Chance for people go out quickly and get it?

At the moment in England, the rules for travel/events/isolation say you are fully vaccinated if you have had 2 vaccines so really it doesn't matter what people think. I do think it will change though.

I caught covid in December just before I was invited for my booster. I now can’t get the booster until March. I’m hoping I’ll continue to be considered fully vaccinated as long as I get the booster in March, even if they change it to three doses soon. As a teacher I’ll likely be a close contact a lot this half term and it makes little sense for me to lose my exemption from isolation when we’re likely to be so short-staffed and I’ve had all the doses I can.

This!

There will still be 12 to 15 year olds ineligible due to the three month rule. There were 1 in 7 off with Covid at the same time at our school in mid October, then some could have since had Omicron too.

Why can't you get it until March? You can get a vaccine 4 weeks after having Covid

Oh, really? I thought it was 90 days? If I can get it earlier then that’s great.

Yup, 28 days from positive PCR.
