Florida Women - btfc - 02-19-2021
‘ With bonnets on their heads and bespectacled faces, two young women pretended to be seniors so they could get the coronavirus vaccine, and it seems their rouse may have actually worked at least one time.
Dr. Raul Pino from the Florida Department of Health in Orange County said the pair was busted when they tried to get their second shot on Wednesday at the Orange County Convention Center. ‘
‘ He’s not sure how or even if the two young women were able to get their first doses but when they showed up Wednesday to complete the series, they presented a valid vaccination card.
“There were some issues with their IDs and their driver’s license, but I don’t know all the details about them,” Pino said.
He added that the vaccinators noticed they “looked funny” and stopped them right before they could get the shots.
The Orange County Sheriff’s Office was called after they were caught to process a report on the situation and issue trespass warnings for the two women. Deputies said their real names were on the vaccination cards but their date of births didn’t match. One woman was 34 and the other was 44.
There will also be an investigation to determine if they actually received the first shot. ‘

“...it seems their rouse may have actually worked at least one time.”
Proofreading is truly dead. :facepalm:
rouse - noun: an act or instance of rousing - verb: to arouse from or as if from sleep or repose
ruse - noun - a wily subterfuge

Yeah, that one immediately jumped out at me, too.
BTW, wouldn’t the arm of a person in their early 30’s and early 40’s looks pretty different from a senior citizen’s arm? I wonder how they passed the first-round shot.

Was it the Little Rascals show from the 40s (?) where the kids hopped up on each other to impersonate an adult?
