William Shakespeare is a busy kid during pandemics. First, King Lear wrote during the plague, and now he’s one of the first people to get the COVID-19 vaccine? Incredible! (You won’t take this away from me, this good man named William Shakespeare who got the vaccine is going to live like YOUR Billy Shakes in my mind, and that’s it.)
“Groundbreaking, I think,” said the word maker after receiving the vaccine, and I can’t wait to see how many magazines have that quote written in the future! Always a legend, that’s Billy Shakes.
William Shakespeare, 81, of Warwickshire in England was one of the first people to receive the recently approved COVID-19 vaccine outside of a clinical trial https://t.co/gurWu2NaeS pic.twitter.com/fKLdUBYfNl

Twitter is fascinated with William Shakespeare and I honestly wish this fascination existed when I was nerding about Macbeth and A Midsummer Night’s Dream at school.
Casting Director: So what would you bring to the role of the second patient? We want a sense of true drama and patriotism here.
Auditionee: My name is literally William Shakespeare.
Casting director: Fair, the role is yours. https://t.co/phnYvq0SSh

My brain won’t accept that there’s a guy named William Shakespeare in England who got the covid vaccine. It’s like a Hanna-Barbera cartoon version of the name where they keep going through the same background. We can’t have new William Shakespeare walking around.

First Covid Vaccines Made in the UK The first man to be vaccinated was Mr William Shakespeare. It is not a joke.
All’s well That ends well.

To be completely honest, Ann Cleeves cheering on William Shakespeare is what totally broke me. I think this was the turning point for many of us. We kept everything together as best we could, trying to get through this year, and then all of a sudden the vaccine comes along, and it arrives. William Shakespeare. Can you blame us all for laughing completely?
Happy for Billy Shakes who got the first round of the vaccine and I can’t wait to see what play he wrote while in quarantine this time! Another mad king story? Call it Golden power And is it about Donald Trump?
