I think that one post vaccination behavior will be trying to remember that I don't have to take all the same precaution. We are 12 days post 2nd vaccination.
For the past year we have had a mail procedure. When the mail arrives unless something in it is important (we have the email thing that shows us what we are getting), we leave the mail in the box 24 hours. Then we bring it in. I may open it that day but may not depending on what it is. When I do open it, my habit has generally been to open it and then wash my hands. I felt it might not be necessary, but it is a habit I developed over the last year.
So a little while ago I was looking at the pile of mail DH brought in this afternoon and I opened a piece of mail. Without thinking about it, afterwards I went and washed my hands. I immediately realized that I didn't really need to do that. One advantage of getting vaccinated is that I don't have to take that particular precaution (in my opinion). I will still mask in public and I'm not going to restaurants yet...but I should be able to open the mail 24+ hours after it is delivered without washing my hands.
The point is that you get used to precautions, even those you don't really like.
