Another day of shouting into the void about the safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine.
They work – just ask the Western Cape health department, which reported this week that of the 292 people aged 60 and older who died of COVID-19 during the peak of the province’s third wave, 98,3% were not fully vaccinated.
Facts don’t seem to matter to the ‘do your own research, sheeple’ brigade, many of whom have unironically turned to Ivermectin as a sort of miracle treatment.
Public health officials aren’t swaying those opposed to getting the job, and neither are horror stories from healthcare workers.
How about a Family Guy video with Peter, Stewie, Brian, and a few other familiar characters?
I guess it’s worth a shot, reports Variety:
In the three-minute video, Peter Griffin debates whether or not to get vaccinated at the doctor’s office, so Stewie and Brian Griffin explain the science behind the COVID vaccine, combining typical “Family Guy” humor and real educational facts.
Stewie and Brian shrink down microscopically to enter Peter’s body, where they explain how the vaccine combats the virus…
The PSA was written by Macfarlane, who voices the characters, the “Family Guy” writers and a team of scientific experts and epidemiologists.
True to form, Meg is depicted as the virus itself.
If that video doesn’t work, you can watch it here.
