Question: If you receive the trail vaccination of Novavax, it doesn't count toward being vaccination? That is sad. We know we have to be vaccination before February when we go on a cruise, but REALLY want to get the Novavax. Praying it will be approved and available by November.
We both still have active antibodies from having Covid in January and don't feel comfortable getting a vaccination while still having antibodies. Our son received the Moderna after having a strong case of Covid and had a terrible time with the first injection. (4 months after being sick) Passed on the second one because of his reaction.

Connie, many people are asking questions about immunity or antibodies from having had a COVID infection and if and when to get vaccinated. Mayo Clinic offers this guidance on its COVID vaccine page https://www.mayoclinic.org/coronavirus-covid-19/vaccine

"Should I get a COVID-19 vaccine if I’ve already had COVID-19?
Getting COVID-19 might offer some natural protection or immunity from reinfection with the COVID-19 virus. But it’s not clear how long this protection lasts.

Because it’s possible to get reinfected and COVID-19 can cause severe medical complications, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that people who have already had COVID-19 get a COVID-19 vaccine.

If you were treated for COVID-19 with monoclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma, wait 90 days before getting a COVID-19 vaccine."
