We're seeing more and more people sharing pictures of themselves getting vaccinated on social media. Now, letting people know you've been vaccinated against COVID-19 is getting more popular on dating websites as well.
Dating website OkCupid has even added the question "will you get the COVID-19 vaccine?" to its matching questions. It says people who are answering âyesâ are receiving 20% more likes and 12% more matches.
âBeing vaccinated might be the new 6â tall, so you know, would a 5â4â women date a man who's 5â8â or 5â9,â of course she would, I want to hope she would. Would she date someone who's not vaccinated? Well right now, she would, but six months down the line, or a year down the line, why is he not vaccinated yet? Was it his choice not to be vaccinated?â said Maria Avgitidis, a professional matchmaker and CEO of Agape Match.
