Did a Chinese restaurant advertise giving customers 95% off their lunch total if you show them a vaccination card? No, that's not true: The sign was made by a prank website where you can create your own Chinese restaurant sign.
The story originated from an Instagram post published on September 5, 2021. The sign read:
LUNCH: $150 (GET 95% OFF WITH VACC. CARD!) F*** DESANTIS

DeSantis, the name seen after the expletive in the sign, is referring to the Florida governor, Ron DeSantis.
The sign is fake and can be recreated to say anything. On Atom.Smasher.org/chinese/, users can generate a fake Chinese restaurant sign with up to four lines of text underneath the line that says, "Enter your own message here:"
