The “jab” is being promoted in a way that it’s the key to ‘getting out of COVID jail’. The elderly in our area are jumping through all sorts of hoops to get their jabs .... desperate to see family & friends again. Those eyeball deep in fear porn are also acting the same way - we have also noticed that the first question, pretty much without fail, people are asking when they talk to you via phone or in person after a bit of an absence, is ‘have you gotten your vaccine yet’?
Unless they are in a "nursing home" the only thing keeping them from seeing family and friends is their own phobia.
