In general, the vaccinated disease is much easier than those who do not have vaccinations. These are mild symptoms. Although the accumulation of the virus in the human respiratory tract – both vaccinated and unvaccinated – is quite high. So vaccinated people are also a source of virus transmission, ”the doctor emphasized.
At the same time, Volodymyr Shirobokov stressed that everyone should use personal protective equipment without exception.

And the dose is typical for covid infection. That’s why personal protective equipment is mandatory for all people, “he concluded.
