You’ve had the vaccine already? Fantastic. Me too. [Pause] Which one did you get? Oh right, well look that’s great. Me? Actually, I got the Pfizer jab [almost imperceptible smile].

You a little more basically than me but both still ready to book a summer holiday, eh?

你接種過疫苗了?很好,我也接種過了。(停頓)你接種的是哪種疫苗?哦,好吧,那太好了。我?說實話,我接種的是輝瑞(Pfizer)的疫苗(此時露出幾乎難以察覺的笑容)。但我們接種的疫苗都很好——80%和90%的有效性又有什麼區別呢?雖然顯然差了10%,但關鍵是我們基本上都得到了保障。你得到的保障雖然比我差一些,但我們兩個都已經準備好去度假了,對嗎?
