Issue Number: -20 — Will you be getting your jabs?
I'll be getting my shots--but I have to admit I dislike the use of the term "jab" for vaccination. Perhaps it's a Britishism, but here in North America, "jab" is predominantly used by antivax sorts. "Shots" here.
I think 'jab' might be an 'Englishism' as in Scotland it would be a 'jag'. I'm glad to hear you will be getting your shots.
Yeah, it also appears in Canada and was rapidly adopted by antivaxxers here, alas.
