What Broadway show are you seeing where they stamp your hand??

As for the rest, the fact that not a single infection has been traced to a Broadway audience suggests that these protocols are working. But you're right that it reminds me of another time in history: 2009, when I had to show that I was vaccinated against measles in order to go to grad school. Or 1985, when I had to show that I'd been inoculated against polio to go to kindergarten. Scary times indeed.

Broadway Hand-Stamping & 50's Proof of Polio Vax

When I saw Harry Potter a week and a half ago on Wed., 2/2/2022, the vax checkers outside the Lyric stamped my left hand.

In 1954 when I (as a 1st grader) was inoculated against polio at St. Dionysius Catholic School in Cicero, IL, we were given a scapular-like chain to be worn around the neck, which was proof of vaccination. In order to be admitted to crowded venues like Wrigley Field, Comiskey Park, or Riverview Amusement Park, you had to show your polio chain.

BTW when I saw MJ at the Thurs. matinee on 2/3/2022, sitting in the mid-mezzanine, I could see that there were a lot of empty seats on this level, probably around 75% full. The first floor, however, did look to be sold out.

They checked my ID and vaccinate cards then stamped my right hand with black ink. Then went through a small leather bag I had as I walked into the far side entrance at the Neil Simeon Thea. wearing my mask over the nose. At another show I had a wrist band.
