If you are immunocompromised. Even though vaccinated. You could still catch the virus and be seriously impacted by it for example. The vaccine is not a guaranteed 100% protection for a healthy young person. And the weaker you are, the worse are the odds.
And then you have the possiblity of mutations. The longueur the virus is on circulation. The more likely it is to mutate with worse outcome.

Yeah, but mutations are most likely gonna come from the billions that are unvaccinated outside the US. If this is the main concern, we should be doing all we can to make sure people in other countries (many of whom are very willing to take the vaccine) are getting the vaccine.
But if you're immunocompromised, you're fscked anyways, and should stay at home, because a lot of vaccinated people (~30+% with astrazeneca) can still get it, and even stay asymptomatic (so they spread it, but don't even know it, and noone tests them, because they're vaccinated).
