What if, instead of telling people they're still not safe after two shots and they're going to need a third, we told them where to go to get the vaccine? Would that increase adoption rates?

So after you're fully vaccinated, it will be "low risk" to do all the things it's safe for unvaccinated people to do.

@JHWeissmann: lol signed up for Coinbase, discovered Dogecoin isn't on there. I'm a noob.

@JHWeissmann: Looks like Robinhood is my bet here. This is all going to end in me going bankrupt but, like, ironically.

@JHWeissmann: Apparently Robinhood has to "approve" my account and I can't buy my dumb meme asset until then

@JHWeissmann: OK, I bought some ANKR (whatever that is) because it was the cheap one. Gonna go research my digital pet rock now.
