Despite the fact that the Covid-19 vaccination campaign is in full swing in India, some people remain hesitant or unaware of the need for vaccination. Meanwhile, there are those who suffer from needle phobia and are terrified of receiving an injection. A comical video has become popular on social media in which a bunch of men try everything they can to get their friend to take the vaccine, but he refuses.

The 1.20-minute video begins with a man closely gripping his terrified friend and resisting all attempts to administer the vaccine. More friends come in to convince him to receive the shot, but he still refuses to approach the medical personnel. After all attempts to calm him have failed, his buddies seize him and ask the medical team to vaccinate him. Three men pin him on the ground and administer vaccinations to him.

A journalist named Aniil Dubey uploaded the video on Twitter, captioning it, “Getting a vaccine and forcing someone to get a vaccine is a difficult chore.” The incident occurred at a vaccination centre in Bundelkhand, Madhya Pradesh, according to the tweet.

Here’s the link to the funny video:

The video has gone viral, delighting some who found the episode amusing, while others praised his friends’ efforts to get him vaccinated. ‘It’s called friendship, which is rarely seen,’ one person said.
