I'd still wear masks even if vaccinated. But I'm not eligible for vaccination yet, and neither is my T.

Ugh. Do you know if the vaccinated healthcare professional ended up getting serious illness from it or if it was just that they tested positive? Though it sounds like they then spread it...
I know they've said there will naturally be some "breakthrough" infections in fully vaccinated people, because the vaccine isn't 100% effective, but so far, the numbers they're showing for that have been extremely low. Like much lower than they would have expected.
Do you know how much longer you'll have to wait to be eligible for the vaccine?
ETA: It occurs to me that you're likely getting different vaccines in your country--I was referring to data on breakthrough infections with Pfizer or Moderna (I'm not sure enough have been vaccinated here with Johnson & Johnson yet to have those data).
