The answer is that we don't know. But it is not unlikely.
You can still get the flu even if you had a flu shot for example. Some of that may be due to the flu shot being the wrong strain but some of it is definitely due to infection post vaccination. The main reason that they recommend a flu shot is that you usually have a milder course of illness.
Covid will probably be the same way. You could have mild symptoms or be asymptomatic despite being vaccinated and infect someone else.
- xiphias2 6y agoThere has never been a flu shot with 95% efficiency. Actually Moderna announced in September that they are getting into the flu vaccine business. It will be great to see mRNA based flu vaccine coming hopefully soon.
- sjg007 6y agoIf you read the clinical trial press they state that nobody who received the vaccine had a severe covid 19 disease. That means some had symptoms and a mild course of disease. We do not know that if you get covid, despite vaccination, that you are not infectious.
