However, even if you are asymptomatic, it’s still possible for you to spread COVID-19 to others and they may end up with a more serious case of COVID-19. You may even be asymptomatic, meaning you don’t have any symptoms. If you do get a breakthrough case, there’s a good chance your symptoms will be minor. There’s a very small chance – less than 0.01% – that you could get a case of breakthrough COVID-19 even though you’re vaccinated. New variants are more contagious, making it harder to control the spread of COVID-19 – even to people who are vaccinated. But the situation – and COVID-19 – has changed. Previous guidance from the CDC was that fully vaccinated people didn’t need to wear a mask most of the time. I thought I didn’t need to wear a mask if I was vaccinated. Wearing a mask even when outdoors can be an especially good idea if you live with people who are immunocompromised or haven’t gotten the vaccine – for example, young children who aren’t yet eligible. But you may consider wearing a mask if you’re going to a crowded outdoor event, especially when you’re around others who haven’t been vaccinated.

In most parts of the country, the recommendations for both vaccinated and unvaccinated people are now very similar. So, what do the updated guidelines mean for you? Who should wear masks and when? To lend some clarity, my colleagues and I put together this guide to help you navigate masking – whether you’re vaccinated or not. Based on the new masking guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a growing number of fully vaccinated individuals are once again slipping on their favorite mask as a way to protect themselves and their communities from COVID-19. Are they all unvaccinated or have unvaccinated individuals – like children – in their households? When you’re at the store, you might be wondering what’s causing more shoppers to cover their faces.
