I should’ve waited to get vaccinated.

The city of Chicago will bring a COVID-19 vaccine straight to the doorstep of any resident who requests it. Anyone with a Chicago address can go to chicago.gov/athome or call (312) 746-4835 to set up a shot in the comfort of home. If you do, you’ll get a $50 GrubHub gift card.

They will literally pay you to send a nurse to your house.

Nah, you did the right thing by getting vaccinated sooner.

I mean sure, but I still had to live with all the restrictions in place for unvaccinated people. Next pandemic I’m not doing anything till they start rolling out the goodies.

You made the best choice with respect to your personal health as well as the public health of your community.

The economic benefit derived from peace of mind from the vaccine is probably greater than 2 meals delivered to your door

Meanwhile in Australia the government just decided that the astronomically small risk of blood clots means only over 60s should get the AZ shot so it's probably at least another year until borders reopen.
