Vaccination cetacean
Aww I’m jealous.
I can’t complain though. Where I got mine is normally a sitting area with a coffee/snack bar (closed for vax days), with a two-story glass wall on one side, so not at all a bad place for the 15 minute wait afterwards.
Still…Under the Whale…
I got mine in a large boring room at the fairgrounds. I don’t know what normally happens there, probably just displays and stuff, but it was sort of meh. Blue whales or coffee bars would either one have been nicer. I stood in a line that snaked around a group of folding chairs (not properly socially distanced, but having the illusion of distancing. Too close…and people with a tendancy to pull them toward you and sit where the hell they wanted). Then we waited on folding chairs until it was time to go.
So I’m jealous of both of you. Seattle or NYC…either would be better than here.
Sub-cetacean vaccination coffee station correlation?
Hmph. I get my first vaccine on Saturday in the carpark of Middlesbrough football stadium in the rain (because it always rains there). Still, I can’t complain*. One of the options when I booked the appointment was, effectively, “somewhere down by the canal in Wakefield.”
* I’m not actually complaining at all, I’m joking. I’m very glad to be getting vaccinated.
Yeah, boy, getting vaccinated is a damn party. They could have done it to me at the airport and I wouldn’t have minded.
I got my jab in the leisure centre. It was weird, seeing the kind of set-up you only see in disaster movies.
I got mine at my doctor’s office. So mundane. :-) I get the second dose next week.
Although, while I was there for my first dose, I did see them getting a delivery of liquid nitrogen. I recognized the type of tank, and the delivery guy. He’s the same guy who delivers liquid nitrogen and compressed gases to where I work.
I thought it was going to be in the same place I get the flu shot every year, which would have been much more mundane. I didn’t realize it was bulk vaccinating until I got there. I quite liked it – more festive, more like a mass rescue. Much esprit de corps.
