Well, for some who just met their partners on dating apps, it is heading to the nearest vaccination centre and getting a jab together. Now, dating apps are adding features that educate users, busting myths and allaying fears. Popular sites like Tinder, Ok Cupid and Woo allow users to display a badge (usually an image of a syringe or plaster) to state they are vaccinated.

Nevertheless, out of 19% of its vaccinated users, 50% have so far uploaded their certificates.
