“Is going to Miami safe?”
My husband and I are going to Miami. We both are fully vaccinated but he has an Aortic aneurysm and I don't think it's safe for him to go.

The aortic aneurysm does not place your husband at increased risk for COVID-19. Going to a state that is currently having an increased number of COVID-19 cases and rising would be the reason to consider canceling the trip. There is currently a power struggle going on in Florida where the governor of the state has decided that almost all individual measures to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus need to yield to re-opening the state to normal commercial activity versus public health officials who would like to see mask mandates and an emphasis on social distancing. Since we know that fully vaccinated people can still get COVID-19 and can transmit the virus, I would recommend against going to Florida at this time.
