How long will we be watching videos of people getting injections on the news?

[luv2fly]

It's only been a couple days and best I can tell, getting an injection of the covid vaccine looks pretty much like every other injection that every person has been getting for their entire life.

I thought the reporters standing outside the Pfizer factory in Michigan last week waiting for pictures of trucks was bad, but at least that ended pretty quickly.

1. I don't know. I don't care.

I encourage the news media to keep covering people getting these vaccines. I don't see any problem with the coverage at all.

[Polly Hennessey]

2. Bad enough getting a shot, which I detest.

Watching others get injections is almost as bad. 🥺

[Aristus]

3. When it's no longer news?

[cwydro]

4. I got so sick of watching people having a swab stuck up their noses.

THis could only be an improvement, but I’m on a news embargo right now anyway.

[Hugin]

5. I would gratefully watch ants carrying a potato chip.

Before seeing one more second of the Yeller Baboon or his screeching flying Trumpanzees.

Vaccine recipients is even better.

[Turin_C3PO]

6. If it helps

drill into people's minds that they need to get a vaccine, I'm all for it.

[Tanuki]

23. +1000

[frazzled]

7. Until a substantial portion of the population

Sees that it’s easy and safe, and until they go out and get it themselves. There’s a whole lot of skepticism out there, especially in communities of color. It’s in all our best interests that this skepticism be overcome so that sufficient numbers of people choose to be vaccinated.

[Baclava]

8. Eh, give it a week, its something new, what, you prefer more Kraken stories?

[Alpeduez21]

9. The more people getting a vaccine the better

I am VERY excited for the prospect of earth becoming more social and open, again. I fully understand precautions will need to be followed for months but light is at the end of the tunnel.

I don't know if images of people getting vacinated eases the mind of anti vaxers but it won't hurt.

[Demsrule86]

10. I love watching this...yesterday I cried when I saw it...300,000 + Americans are dead.

[NCDem47]

11. It makes it tangible. Real.

Visual proof we’re making progress. Offers hope.

TV producers can’t just show talking heads discussing it. But agree that it can be repetitive.

[femmocrat]

12. I think it's a good thing.

Look at all those health care professionals who are not afraid. It would be interesting if they would interview someone not willing to get the shot!

I can’t wait for it to start here.

I am kind of bored with seeing those long lines for food pick ups though. Seems like that is all they show on our local news. I know it’s important, but do they have to show every one by every charitable organization? May God forgive my uncharitable inclinations!

[Solly Mack]

13. It's not about the already sold on science. It's for those who call Covid 19 a hoax or the vaccine a

government plot. For those on the fence.

It serves to counter the ignorance.

It is much needed.

Yeah, I rolled my eyes at yet another truck watch or injection story - but then I'm not the target audience.

Also, it's a very good thing that there is a vaccine and that is something to be happy about.

[MissB]

14. It's a good look

Normalize the idea of the vaccination.

[louis-t]

15. If only they had shown more people dying in a hospital

with tubes rammed down their throats, maybe the deniers would have taken this thing a little more seriously.

[BannonsLiver]

16. If it upsets you don't watch it.

Some folks are happy about the vaccine.

[luv2fly]

18. So helpful thank you

Not at all what I was addressing but whatever.

[BannonsLiver]

19. You're welcome.

(Next time give clarity a try.)

[MyOwnPeace]

17. It's like the first snow storm of the year......

we've all seen snow - we've driven in it - we know what it's like. And yet they send 1 poor reporter out to stand along a highway while the trucks and cars fly by, blowing wind, snow, and slush onto the poor guy or gal just to show us what we already know.
As for the "shots" - I'm just thrilled to see that they're happening!

[RussBLib]

20. every day, please

especially celebrities, politicians, authors, police, healthcare workers, and anyone else that engenders respect

[LexVegas]

21. ...

[luv2fly]

22. Oh no need to cry

They will end eventually, and the news cycle will be on to something else. Stay strong.

[LexVegas]

27. ...

[BannonsLiver]

25. +1

The rage over coverage of a vaccine rollout is bizarre.

[bluestarone]

24. It sends out a good positive message

I'm in full support of them doing it!!

[Johnny2X2X]

26. Positive and negative

The public needs to know that everyone should get the vaccine and it's safe and painless. Also though, it needs to be emphasized that some people getting the vaccine doesn't change the safety protocols we all should be following religiously.

[MurrayDelph]

28. The news keeps hoping someone

will Hulk out on camera.

And when they don't, the news turns around to say "see, we told you it's safe."

[luv2fly]

30. With sympathies to the person of course

It would be entertaining to watch someone Hulk out.

[TeamPooka]

29. For about a year.

[Brainfodder]

31. Turn it off if it's bothering you?

I don't watch the news, haven't in many years.

They have to fill time.

[Yeehah]

32. Until they stop featuring that content or until you turn your tv off

I suggest the second option.
