CDC Lists Recommendations for Those Fully Vaccinated for COVID-19



BREVARD COUNTY, FL. -- The spike in COVID-19 cases has focused a lot of attention on those who have not been vaccinated. Ample supplies of vaccine are available at Florida Department of Health-Brevard (DOH-Brevard), area pharmacies, urgent cares centers and from your private physician. Residents who are ages 12 and older are recommended to get vaccinated.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has provided guidance for individuals fully vaccinated for COVID-19.

Individuals are considered fully vaccinated for COVID-19 two or more weeks after they have received the second dose in a two-dose series (Moderna and Pfizer vaccine require two doses) or two or more weeks after they have received a single-dose vaccine (Janssen/Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine).

Here is an overview of the CDC Interim Public Health Recommendations for Fully Vaccinated people:

  • Resume activities without wearing masks or physical distancing except where required by federal, state, local, tribal or territorial laws, rules and regulations, including local businesses and workplaces.
  • Refrain from quarantine and testing following a known exposure if they remain asymptomatic.
  • Resume domestic travel and refrain from testing before or after travel of self-quarantine after travel.
  • Refrain from testing before leaving the United States for international travel (unless required by the destination) and refrain from self-quarantine after arriving back in the United States.
  • Refrain from routine screening testing if asymptomatic and feasible.

Fully vaccinated individuals should continue to:

  • Practice hand and respiratory hygiene.
  • Get tested if experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.
  • Follow guidance issued by individual employers.
  • Follow travel requirements and recommendations.

Fully vaccinated individuals should continue to watch for symptoms of COVID-19. Regardless of vaccination status, if symptoms develop, individuals should isolate and be evaluated for COVID-19, including SARS-CoV-2 testing if indicated.

DOH-Brevard offers Moderna and Janssen COVID-19 vaccinations, based on availability, at 2555 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Viera.  Beginning Thursday, July 29, DOH-Brevard will be offering Pfizer vaccine to those 12 and older at all three DOH clinic locations in Melbourne, Viera and Titusville. No appointments required.
