Another question this suggests is whether you should wait 28 days (Moderna) or 21 days (Pfizer) between doses... [[User:JohnHawkinson|JohnHawkinson]] ([[User talk:JohnHawkinson|talk]]) 02:50, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
:[[1923: Felsius|Average]] and [[1292: Pi vs. Tau|get]] 24.5 days? <span style="font-family:serif">[[User:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#00BFFF">bubblegum</span>]]-[[User_talk:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#BF7FFF">talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Bubblegum|<span style="color:#FF7FFF">contribs</span>]]</span> <span style="font-family:serif">18:50, 10 February 2021 (UTC)</span>

Can someone clarify if I, the banshee, or both need to be in the catamaran? [[User:Cwallenpoole|Cwallenpoole]] ([[User talk:Cwallenpoole|talk]]) 04:34, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
:I'd say at least the banshee needs to be in the catamaran. If only you were in it, but the banshee wasn't, you'd be slaying it from (or with, if you use the catamaran as a weapon), rather than in a catamaran. [[User:Bischoff|Bischoff]] ([[User talk:Bischoff|talk]]) 11:18, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
::Isn't that like the Groucho Marx joke? "I once shot an elephant in my pajamas. How it got into my pajamas, I don't know." [[User:Barmar|Barmar]] ([[User talk:Barmar|talk]]) 23:56, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

==quality==
For those that read XKCD here first - yes, the original comic really is that low quality. I suspect Randall's going to replace it with a cleaner one at some point. [[Special:Contributions/108.162.237.134|108.162.237.134]] 23:10, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
:Unless the low quality is intentional, some way-over-my-head joke about vaccines and mRNA, maybe? -- or the low-quality of the image as an analogy for the low-quality of the rhymes? {{unsigned ip|172.69.234.138}}

Looks like he's uploaded a better version now. I don't know how to replace the image, though. [[User:Argis13|Argis13]] ([[User talk:Argis13|talk]]) 23:40, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

:It's still low quality at xkcd.com. [[User:Troy0|Troy0]] ([[User talk:Troy0|talk]]) 00:14, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

:You can't (I just tried it). The image shown is scaled up by 2×, and the non-scaled version (the one displayed) is anti-aliased. <span style="font-family:serif">[[User:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#00BFFF">bubblegum</span>]]-[[User_talk:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#BF7FFF">talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Bubblegum|<span style="color:#FF7FFF">contribs</span>]]</span> <span style="font-family:serif">00:20, 9 February 2021 (UTC)</span>

:Looks like Randall fixed it now.[[Special:Contributions/172.68.174.86|172.68.174.86]] 00:39, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

::I believe that the proper file should be vaccine_ordering_2x.png Bubblegum is correct. [[User:Icil34|Icil34]] ([[User talk:Icil34|talk]]) 01:00, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Icil34

:::That was a typo (it should be "is <i>not</i> anti-aliased"). The 2x one is displayed on xkcd, while the non-2x one is displayed on explainxkcd. The non-2x version was not anti-aliased when I made that comment, but it is now. <span style="font-family:serif">[[User:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#00BFFF">bubblegum</span>]]-[[User_talk:Bubblegum|<span style="color:#BF7FFF">talk</span>]]|[[Special:Contributions/Bubblegum|<span style="color:#FF7FFF">contribs</span>]]</span> <span style="font-family:serif">01:17, 9 February 2021 (UTC)</span>

:Just uploaded the new version.[[User:DKMell|DKMell]] ([[User talk:DKMell|talk]]) 01:05, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

== I'd like to upload the original aliased files but I don't have permission to create new pages. ==

The original 1x version is [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/627414163357958154/808498606017478706/vaccine_ordering.png here] and the 2x version, still aliased but with 4 pixels of #f7f7f7, is [https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/images/archive/5/50/20210209001704%21vaccine_ordering.png here] [[User:Landfillbaby|Landfillbaby]] ([[User talk:Landfillbaby|talk]]) 01:21, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
