The religious aspects of covidism go beyond the shot, which is simply the sacrament. It has holy writ (the science), prophecy (the models), ritual (hand sanitizer, social distancing), confession (testing), sacred garb (masks), and of course a priesthood (public health, doctors, nurses). The deceased are the martyrs. Fauci is the prophet. The hospital, the church. Of course, to covidians, it's absurd to say it's a religion - in their world, it's all very real. To the sane, the cult aspects are beyond obvious.
