What are the risks to you and your kids when vaccinated and unvaccinated people mix?

The Globe spoke with three infectious disease experts to ask common questions about safety when vaccinated and unvaccinated people mix in a group. One question you may have: If I'm vaccinated, how high is the risk in hanging out with an unvaccinated person? "Very, very low," said Dr. Daniel Kuritzkes, chief of infectious diseases at Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

  • Experts say it's safe for most fully vaccinated people to enjoy their newfound freedom, but we still need to watch the data closely because "things can change on a dime," said Dr. Joshua Barocas, an infectious diseases specialist at Boston Medical Center.
