It looked like a bank robbers’ convention.
I’d never seen so many masked people in the same room at the same time.
I can imagine their conference. Panels on Mask Wearing and Placement 101 – better to hang it high, or low and slinky? Show your baby blues, or hide your leer?
Robbery and Mask Timing. Should you put it on when you’re driving to Chase Bank – or save it for the last moment before the stickup? Should you stroll around nonchalantly, sporting a neckerchief—and then, just after you’re in the door, whip it over your telltale mouth?
Dexterity. How do you put on a mask without losing your grip on your gun?
I was daydreaming at the vaccination station, where a cheery health care worker shoots you with a big needle that you don’t want to look at, cuz you’re a scaredy cat.
I got Moderna, and it was easy. Everyone chatted amiably with strangers, and no one had to lie on the floor and think about Bonnie and Clyde.
Conclusion: Getting a vaccine is better than robbing banks.
