Zero tangible benefit? Seriously?

I got vaccinated because I don't want to get sick. And things may different wherever you live, but around here it's still a mad rush to sign up for vaccine appointments every morning when they become available. Demand is spiked.

As far as the day-to-day goes, I have no qualms about hanging out with friends and family who have also been vaccinated. No mask, no nothing. That's a pretty significant benefit all by itself.
