New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio wants you to know that if you get vaccinated, you can enjoy free fries from Shake Shack. And personally, I’m down. Not what you expected, was it? Especially with all the fat-shaming that is going around this 2021. Because if fries are the thing that gets you through the door and vaccinated, then so be it. We all have that moment where we make a choice for ourselves and the future of our loved ones. This is your moment, and you shouldn’t feel ashamed!

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 150 million people in the U.S. (or just over 44 percent of the population), have received their first vaccine shot, and around 107 million (32 percent of the population) are fully vaccinated.
