A. Even if you have had the virus, you may not be immune from the delta variant and others that likely are coming and that vaccines protect us from. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says you can get the vaccine as soon as you’re out of quarantine and symptom-free, with one caveat: If you received monoclonal antibody treatments, you should wait 90 days after your full recovery.
A recent study of patients in Kentucky who were infected more than once showed the vaccines provide better protection than natural immunity.

“If you have had COVID-19 before, please still get vaccinated,” CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said. “This study shows you are twice as likely to get infected again if you are unvaccinated. Getting the vaccine is the best way to protect yourself and others around you, especially as the more contagious delta variant spreads around the country.”

Get vaccinated. Had covid already? Get vaccinated.
FURTHERMORE, in my view: Anyone who comes close to you without a mask is a potential danger to YOU!
