   My extended family had a slightly different experience.  A couple of us   
   stayed up to date on our shots *and* also continued to take the other   
   precautions.  Knock on wood, we still have not had it.  The others got   
   their shots, spent a lot more time belittling those who didn't, and also   
   seemed to think the shots meant they could let their guard down.  They did   
   things like travel by plane and intentionally putting themselves into other   
   social situations where distancing would not be observed or even possible.   
   They all got COVID.   
      
   I think the shots work, provided that you also stay smart about things.

   Yep!
