No one needs to save face, getting a vaccine is possible without even mentioning it, or indeed lying about it. Harping on about making a personal medical decision like it's some measure of righteousness is very fashionable, if the pandemic was anything to go by, but it's still not normal.
- HWR_14 3y agoA lot of people did get secretly vaccinated against COVID to save face. But this isn't to publicly save face. It's to save face with the kids who are going to actually get the shot or usually more importantly to save face with themselves so they don't have to admit they were wrong.
- brigandish 3y agoThis is a very novel use of the term "save face", and thus, makes no sense, at all.
