This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

For first doses, you “can” get it 11+ days after diagnosis. by revressbo
I think a lot of doctors are recommending that, if you’ve had it and haven’t yet received your first dose, you wait until 90 days have passed since your diagnosis, not because anything bad would happen to you if you don’t, but simply because you have immunity for at least that long, and vaccines are hard to come by, so it’s better to not take someone else’s spot right now and help us try to reach herd immunity more quickly.
But stopping/starting over after you’ve already received your first dose because you had Covid between the first and second dose is strange and I don’t think at all in line with CDC guidelines.
