Have You Been Fully Vaccinated?

By Kevin Watler, Public Information Officer

April 05, 2021

Per the CDC, people are considered fully vaccinated:

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