Unless you happen to be an expert in the field(s) of virology, epidemiology, and contagious disease genetics, I'd leave the interpretation of the report up to others. In meantime, at least for me, I'm happy to follow the advice of thousands of physicians, virologists, and other medical professionals--who have taken the vaccines themselves--and who recommend that others do so as well. I got the vaccine just as soon as I could. I double mask with an N-95 and a homemade two-layer cloth mask to hold the N-95 tight against my face when indoors with strangers. And I stay away from crowded places, such as restaurants, concerts, movie theaters, &c.
