Hilarious Twitter thread shows all the things you can’t do after getting the Covid vaccine – inspired by film

The coronavirus jab rollout is continuing to gather pace across the UK, with more than 37 million people now vaccinated against the deadly disease.

From next week, beauty salons, shops, pubs and restaurants (provided they have outdoor seating) will shake off the shackles of lockdown and life will continue its gradual crawl towards normality.

But, as health and Government authorities constantly point out, getting a vaccine is not a silver bullet against the virus. People who are vaccinated should still maintain social distancing and stick to the rules, which means no hugging grandma just yet.

As always, the creatives on Twitter have come up with a novel way of reinforcing such messages. This time, through the medium of film, books, TV and plays.

In other words, don’t start thinking you can recreate your favourite plotlines just because you’ve had your second dose of the jab.
