you are completely protected. A good mask is a N99/R99/P99 or better mask (although a P100 is x30 better at keeping out particulates). The vaccine is a partial protection that provides diminishing returns over time. The vaccine provides the same level of protection as a mediocre/ill fitting mask. With enough exposure you will end up getting the virus.

Which is fine if you accept that this virus isn’t going away and we will all eventually get numerous variants like the flu.

In response to your question, I only wear P100 respirators and masks. I also have medical reasons to be very cautious.
