And even if we do get testing - and a vaccine! - how do I know that you have done it? A tattoo on your forehead? An armband? A scarlet letter pinned to your lettermen jacket? (That you could have purchased from Etsy, and NOT have gotten from the doctor that stuck you with the vaccine needle?)

Oh. Ok. A new mark on your Driver's License. "Blue eyes; Organ donor; COVID Vaccine 10/2020".

Which also has the new RFID card in it, so now the vaccine IS actually an RFID tag, and all the loonies refuse to get it, and now we have 30% of the population with the vaccine which isn't nearly enough...

And we have all the medical solutions in place, but none of the social ones.

We are so very fucked.
