From what we already know, I don't think it's reasonable to tell vaccinated people that they must wait till herd immunity until they can change some private behaviors—if you think that's not ever stated, I have many examples to the contrary from very high-profile people/outlets.

So my wish is for the CDC to tell us: guidelines/risk comparisons for: private behavior among vaccinated people and private behavior for vaccinated people around unvaccinated people *and* distinguish outdoor/indoor rules. Public NPIs for indoor? I'd make them *more* strict now.
