Congratulations on completing your vaccinations! Breakthrough Covid is real and can be serious in rare cases, but usually not beyond ordinary supportive care at home. Monoclonal antibody treatment is available for people at high risk of severe disease and it is possible to receive it at home, though it is preferred to get it at an infusion center. Wash hands, avoid crowds, wear mask indoors.

Agree with Dr. Madonna. Additionally: …and wear masks when indoors with people outside of your household, especially if you don’t know if they are fully vaccinated.
