One down and one to go. I am beyond hyped to get my SECOND Covid-19 vaccine shot. A little over a week away @ MSU Pavilion where I got the first one. Moderna. I got the first shot and I've got the card to prove it. And a photo to boot.

Two weeks after that second shot I will be what they call fully vaccinated.

People are considered fully vaccinated:

  • 2 weeks after their second shot in a 2-dose series, like the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or
  • 2 weeks after a single-shot vaccine, like Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine

You are not fully vaccinated if:

  • it has been less than 2 weeks since your 1-dose shot

  • it has been less than 2 weeks since your second shot of a 2-dose vaccine

  • you still need to get your second dose of a 2-dose vaccine (CDC)

I can't wait to go see my father in Detroit and my mom down south. I haven't seen her in over a year. They both have had their vaccines (both doses) so we'll all be good to go. We still have to be safe and I intend to do that, but this is a great big step in the right direction to protect them and me.

But what I'm really looking forward to doing is traveling. I have mentioned I lived in Alaska before I moved back to Michigan. I want to go back to visit and get some of my stuff I left.

There are some places where you would travel to and you'd have to quarantine for a week or two once you get there. Alaska and Hawaii were/are both on that list.

But after I get my SECOND shot and two weeks afterwards, the CDC says that's not the case anymore.

You are now free to move about the country lol.

Peep the whole list of things you can do once you are FULLY VACCINATED.
