It’s a day we’re all looking forward to: being protected from the virus after being vaccinated.
The idea of being free of risk from the virus going to restaurants without fear, shopping without a mask, having family over for a meal or to celebrate a milestone or holiday is the brass ring in this pandemic.

Moderna vs. Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine: Which is better?
The short answer is neither. In December, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) released the news the country had been waiting for: The new Covid-19 vaccine, developed by Pfizer and its partner BioNTech, had been approved. A week later, a second vaccine from Moderna was also approved. And now that the vaccine roll-out has begun (albeit slowly), you might be wondering which Covid vaccine is better.
Should you hold off on one vaccine in order to wait for the other? Absolutely not, says Reynold Panettieri, MD, a professor at the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and director of the Rutgers Institute for Translational Medicine and Science in New Brunswick, New Jersey. No difference has been shown.
Rutgers researchers are interested in studying the homes of newly infected COVID-19 individuals to measure viral particles in the air to hopefully reduce infection rates among household members.
When the coronavirus first hit, Miranda Wilt knew a grocery store run could be fatal to her children.
Both 10-year-old Aiden and 8-year-old Rosie are on the autism spectrum and legally disabled. Wilt, a 35-year-old single mom, said she s too scared to leave the house herself, let alone go outside with her kids, who can t wear face masks.
She turned to online grocery shopping to stay safe, but her monthly SNAP allotment of $55 barely covers the family s essential needs, and that s before the tip and delivery fee. I have no other choice. I have a child who has a disease that has no treatment and no cure, Wilt said.
