Gwyneth Paltrow x Adam Grant: Think Again

“The smarter you are, often the worse you are at rethinking because you can use your intelligence to contort the truth into what you want to hear and what you want to believe,” says organizational psychologist and beloved Wharton professor Adam Grant. After reading his new book, Think Again, GP spoke with Grant about applying his research and wisdom to nearly every facet of life, from our careers to our most intimate relationships. Why do people generally fear being wrong? Grant says that we live in a world that celebrates certainty and mistakes confidence for competence. He explains the trap of letting our ideas become our identities, and how we can find common ground with one another while navigating charged topics. You’ll also find out why Grant is a recovering logic bully.

As more and more people are receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has updated its guidance for those who’ve been vaccinated.

People are considered to be fully vaccinated after two weeks have passed since they received the second dose of either Pfizer or Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine. The same applies to those who get the single-shot vaccine made by Johnson & Johnson.

Here’s the breakdown:

Fully vaccinated people can:

Visit with other fully vaccinated people indoors without wearing masks or maintaining social distancing
Visit with unvaccinated people from a single household who are at low risk for severe COVID-19 disease indoors without wearing masks or social distancing
Refrain from quarantine and testing following a known exposure if asymptomatic
However, those who have been vaccinated should continue to do the following:

Take precautions in public like wearing a well-fitted mask and practicing social distancing
Wear masks, practice social distancing, and adhere to other prevention measures when visiting with unvaccinated people who are at increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease or who have an unvaccinated household member who is at increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease
Wear masks, maintain social distance, and practice other prevention measures when visiting with unvaccinated people from multiple households
Avoid medium- and large-sized in-person gatherings
Get tested if experiencing COVID-19 symptoms
Follow guidance issued by individual employers
Follow CDC and health department travel requirements and recommendations
Since we’re still in the early days of the vaccines, it’s likely that the CDC will update its guidance as more individuals receive the vaccine.

While much is still unknown about the coronavirus and the future, what is known is that the currently available vaccines have gone through all three trial phases and are safe and effective. It will be necessary for as many Americans as possible to be vaccinated in order to finally return to some level of pre-pandemic normalcy, and hopefully these 30 answers provided here will help readers get vaccinated as soon they are able.

Stacker used data from the 2020 County Health Rankings to rank every state's average life expectancy from lowest to highest. The 2020 County Health Rankings values were calculated using mortality counts from the 2016-2018 National Center for Health Statistics. The U.S. Census 2019 American Community Survey and America's Health Rankings Senior Report 2019 data were also used to provide demographics on the senior population of each state and the state's rank on senior health care, respectively.

Read on to learn the average life expectancy in each state.
