~~Dopamine~~

"Alright everybody, in order to stop the spread of the coronavirus we are encouraging people to get the vaccine." Gov started the meeting. He motioned over to today's guests, CDC and a few medical students. "And to do that we'll be some of the first to get it. I've invited a few guests from the CDC to administer the first dose of the vaccine."

Florida waved his hands around all haphazardly. "Wait wait wait. You're telling me we've finally found a way to vaccinate against a hurricane? And it works?"

"No, it don't work. This is all a government coverup to insert some sorta microchip in our arm to watch our every movement." Texas broke in. California immediately opened his mouth and started arguing about how that was a Facebook hoax. Then Tennessee and Alabama opened their mouths, Washington refused to remain silent, and New York decided to tell everybody how he really felt. The entire meeting fell apart in just under a minute, the new world record for this sort of thing.

Gov rubbed his forehead. Florida just stared him in the eye with a huge smirk on his face. "Are you proud of yourself?"

"He-he. Yeah."

"Whatever." Gov ignored the arguing states. He could stop it now and have to deal with the 'debate' resurfacing every few minutes, or he could get CDC and the students to vaccinate as many of the cooperative states as they could before dealing with the combative ones. "I'm so sorry about this. Please, what can we do to get the ball rolling?"

CDC looked up from where they were preparing syringes and bandaids. They looked at the states around the table that weren't arguing. "Well, I suppose we'll vaccinate those of you not being little assholes then move on to the rest. You'll need to be observed for at least 30 minutes after receiving the dose to make sure there are no adverse reactions."

"I thought you said this was approved?"

"It is approved Texas. It's still just something we n-n-need to do to ensure everyone's safety." CDC explained. They handed one of the medical students a tray and pointed at

Connecticut. "Go ahead and start with him."

They proceeded to point out different states and sent the students to them. Every state complied with the treatment, up until CDC tried to send somebody to Florida.

"Oh, no no no." Florida waved a finger at the student. "You're not sticking me."

"Florida please. You have to get the vaccine." Gov pleaded. He really didn't need to deal with this right now.

"Oh I'll get the vaccine." Florida reassured. He smirked and pointed at CDC. "But only if you're the one giving it to me."

"You promise to cooperate if I'm the one who gives it to you?" CDC asked.

"Of course. Unless you're into something else."

"No! I'm into cooperation. Michael, g-give me that and you go make sure Greg gets a dose of the vaccine. He's over in the corner." CDC said. They took the tray from Michael and got to work getting Florida's arm prepped for the injection.

It would be a lot easier if Florida wasn't trying to flex what little muscles he had. It only took two re-corrections and a threat to have somebody else do it before Florida stopped.

"Y'know, giving me this vaccine, I can't help but wish this was the Pfizer dose so that I have an excuse to see you again." Florida flirted as CDC placed one of the Very Nice Company+ brand bandaids on his shoulder.

CDC's brain internally rebooted itself. So many things from that statement. So many different ways he could respond. "This. This is the Pfizer vaccine Florida. You will n-n-need to get a second dose."
