I hope they don't schedule me too far out. Having it be some wait has me a little more comfortable than if I was one of the first, but I would have went first if I could have.

It's easy for me to wait because I'm about as close as you can be to zero risk. I'm on double secret lockdown, never have to let anyone in, and have been in public building three times since October, because I had to. If all the guys like me had taken it as seriously, we could have knocked a few more percent of the spread for sure.
