    Thank you Dr Leong for providing mostly helpful, accessible advice.
    But did I hear you correctly? That one of the reasons for getting yourself sufficiently vaccinated with a second booster shot, ideally the bivalent type, would be seen as being considerate to a vulnerable member at home? By now, everyone must know that being fully vaccinated does not prevent one from getting infected/re-infected or passing on the bug. I'm afraid you may be misleading here.

    The Singapore government recommends no strenuous activity for 14 days after each dose. This dramatically reduces the risk of myocarditis + pericarditis.
