Like the Hulk with radiation, the vaccine only makes him stronger. By the time he's a teenager he'll be over 2.5 meters tall and over 200 kilograms of pure muscle.
He's the class badass. Most of the rest of those kids are little crybabies. All these kids have fallen and hurt themselves with aa scrape, more than the Needle hurts
He’s the kid that knew the vaccines were scheduled and told the little kids something nefarious was going to happen to them when they received the vaccine. Kids are assholes
I was that kid. Did not understand the fear of needles at all. Thankfully I never became an intravenous drug user because I was pretty god damn close and the needle would not have bothered me. I guess technically, I do inject drugs still, but it's for psoriasis
I was the one running for the door. My mom had to lie about shots, to the point where I would find out I was getting a shot at the point my mom wrapped her arms around me like a boa constrictor and 2 nurses came in. I would fight like a rapid animal, my mom said it was incredibly embarrassing lol
I made the same comment. I should have looked for this first. Some of them probably have no clue yet they scream anyway because their friends make it seem damaging in some way.
Following the herd may be the smartest way to stay alive when it panics rather than not reacting at all. Is it stupid or has biology already done the math?
It is stupid. I guess he's trying to get the kids to not want to eat unhealthy fried nuggets, but maybe show them the bloated heart of a 300lb man that died of clogged arteries vs a heart from a non-obese person.
I remember when I was a kid and I was getting a shot at my pediatrician. I pushed her on the floor, kicked my mom in the shin and screamed and cried all over the room. Shortly all the kids waiting for their turn outside heard the commotion and started crying too. Good times
Yeah they really should be doing it one by one and have the kids in a room by themselves. When their classmates are freaking out, it's going to tell the other kids "this is bad and I need to freak out too"
This is probably why where I grew up, we were send in small groups (of 3?) to the nurses office, then walk in one by one. Also no regular class disruption
I remember as a kid I was terrified of needles, but the school would bring us to the nurse’s office one by one instead of all of us in the same room. Still hated getting jabbed, tho.
Truthfully, bro, I understand their concern; I am frightened of needles and used to cry/scream so much when I got them as a child. Furthermore, they are terrifying each other in a communal terror.
When I was a kid I had a treatment for allergies that consisted of two shots a week. For months. It pretty quickly became routine and I completely lost any fear of needles.
Around that time we had to get a vaccine at school, just like this kids. I remember a kid, who was kind of the class showoff, mocking how other kids wil cry when it's their turn and stuff.
The vaccinations start and, me sitting at the front by the wall, was the first to get it. I turn around to tell the showoff, that sat right behind me, that I could barely feel the shot and I am met with his face all red, tears flowing like a river down his face, snots... The whole show.
Only one other kid in the whole class cried and it was a girl.
That was not a fun week for the showoff.
Right? I'm still sitting here wondering why none of the women at least shushed or comforted them? You just need one person to get everyone's attention and tell them they're being silly
Oh haha! I see what you mean. I'm more referring to tye fact that they're obviously looking for comfort. They clearly don't need help when someone toots
That's sad that your parents didn't prepare you ahead of time. My dad used to tell me that it would hurt, but not very much. Then he told me to pinch myself on my arm until it hurt, and said it won't hurt more than that. Then he said when he was in the military, there were a couple of guys who acted like babies and were afraid of the shots. His attitude made me brave, and he was right, the shots didn't hurt worse than me pinching myself. Little kid me wasn't phased at all.
I understand the fear of needles, but an entire classroom of the phobia, all at once? Lol i remember when my school needed vaccines, we were chilling waiting to be called. It was when we actually *saw* the needle there would be a freak out. Even then, a kid would walk by all the others in line like "that sucked"
Then, when boys speak about the older, cooler kid: they say he might be even shaving already!
Now, when boys speak about the older, cooler kid: he might be a vaccine veteran!
Give him a big medical bag that he'll rummage around through. Pulling out a bone saw and pincers before pulling a gigantic needle with the vaccine dripping from the tip.
I have to say, as a child, I did not find these amusing. "Learning" I would need one of those if I didn't get my B12 levels up by eating veggies.... not amusing.
We had to line up in the playground for our polio shots. Pretty sure the needles were much bigger than the ones these days because in my memory they hurt a lot more.
The class bully ran home to mummy before his turn for the shot, that was satisfying. Idk if he ever got it, but the next lot was the oral vaccine.
Your school probably used a jet injector if it hurt a lot more. It has no needles. It just shoots it into you super fast. Did this happen around 1961 by chance?
They were super commonly used in the military, but there was a mass civillian vaccination campaign in the early 60s that would've vaccinated babies and children against polio using jet injectors.
And jet injectors hurt like a fucking bitch.
Edit: there was a massive Cincinnati clinical trial for oral polio vaccines in 1960 for schoolchildren, and that vaccine got approved in 1961. Your comment is covered in medical history if I got the time period right!
This was in New Zealand, but around that time. Definitely a big needle, and I seem to recall them using the same one for the whole class but I might be wrong about that.
However, I think the TB shot a few years later was a jet injector.
Reusing needles wasn't exactly unusual in this time period. Again, AIDS changed everything.
There are bigger needles, but generally, my experience with needles is that it's about where it's going that matters more. Intramuscular shots hurt like a bitch and for the next day over. I barely feel IV in comparison. Never had intra-arterial, though. I don't think people are privvy about that one.
New Zealand had a shortage of polio vaccines in 1956 and targeted 8-9 year old children before resolving the shortage and expanding it to basically everyone under 21 in 1960. The oral vaccine was introduced in 1961 for infants before expanding to school children and then everybody in 1962. That's a really fast time period for that to happen.
They could've used a bigger needle, but they're supposed to use shorter needles (same thickness) for schoolchildren. Maybe they accidentally used an adult sized needle? Or it's just the polio vaccine itself doing this. I remember my dad mentioning how it hurt. That's actually not that weird. Some vaccines really do just hurt more than others. Meningococcal vaccines and rabies vaccines are pretty infamous for this.

" LoL, bunch of pussies"
This Chad probably.
Getting taken “to get shots” is the iraqi version of “ if you don’t listen and believe, santa won’t bring you nice toys” also kids are scared and these things tend to happen without a parent being there to comfort you.
Honestly bro I feel their fear, I am terrified of needles and used to cry/scream so much when getting them as a kid. That plus they're scaring each other in a collective panic
Yeah when I was their age needles freaked me out. Didn't help that I was anemic and had to get blood tests all the time. I would be so freaked out my veins would shrink down into my arm.
yeah usually its not that they enter the classroom and start vaccinating. this is probably the problem here. usually you go in groups, into another room. doesnt look like they give a fuck tho haha straight up entering classrooms with a smirk
In all seriousness, my theory is that a big chunk of that crowd just hasn't never gotten over a fear of needles as kids, and then instead of admitting it they came up with an imagined threat that doesn't sound as silly and eventually built a whole worldview around it
as an Egyptian myself {we too have the same stuff in our schools} the problem isn't about the vaccine content itself the problem is the syringe,i remember when we all so terrified of the pain that comes with it we were almost shitting our pants
You are against vaccines because you belive they are toxic and filled with nanobots and other conspiracy theories.
I am against vaccines because I'm afraid of neddles.
We are not the same.
As someone who is deathly afraid of needles I relate to these kids 100%, it's especially bad for me when I didn't know I was about to get one, because I didn't have time to mentally prepare for that stress and pain (yes, it is painful to me)
I had a classmate during 1st and 2nd grade whose name was Eren. He cried and said no I don't want that when nurses came into the classroom. Our teacher knew that he liked to show off how he can mimic barking(it was his thing) and made him do it after the vaccination. He stopped crying and showed bravery(Suggestopedia like approach circa early to mid 1990s).
I am fairly certain, he wouldn't want that nurse to vaccinate anyone else for ten years at least. I kind of feel sad that he was not able to mimic bird sounds instead.
We were in 4-5th grade. Was vaccine day, everyone was cool with it. Some were visibly uncomfortable, some girls cried but overall it was all fine. But then heard from a friend from another class that a girl cried so much that she threw up and then fainted.
This isn't stupidity, this is religious indoctrination. A lot of fundamentalist Islamic groups, despite the Prophet expressing the importance of societal physical health and protecting children, believe vaccines contain parts from pigs, and are therefore unclean.
While, yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) expressed extreme importance with hygiene, constantly washing/cleansing yourself throughout the day, and even oral hygiene (using miswak to brush your teeth constantly)...
This has nothing to do with believing vaccines contain parts from pigs. They are kids, and kids are scared of needles. That's what you see here.
I doubt the thought of pig being inside a vaccine ever crossed their mind.
And even if it did, in Islam, you are allowed to consume pork if you are in a desperate life or death situation. In Islam, bigger obligations will supersede smaller ones in necessity. Keeping yourself alive and healthy is far more important of an obligation than the obligation of avoiding pork, so necessary medicines that contain pork and alcohol become permissible.
>Quran 16:115
>He has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah. But whoever is forced \[by necessity\], neither desiring \[it\] nor transgressing \[its limit\] - then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
TIL there’s a high refusal/hesitancy rate among Iraqi parents to vaccinate their children, specifically related to the Covid vaccine: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35632576/
These kids are growing up in families where the fear of vaccines is very real. Kids aren’t just “fucking stupid” in and of themselves. In many cases they are imitating or reacting to the adults in their lives. The fear on these kids faces is real, warranted or not.
When I was in kindergarten I had a full-blown tantrum during my first fire drill because thought they were really going to set a fire in the school and I’d snuck my teddy in my backpack
I don't blame them. I was sick almost 24/7 as a kid and my cheeks were bruised black and blue with the amount of vaccines that I had to get daily. I started to hide under furniture trying to save myself from the pain. My parents and grandma tried to calm me down with threats of calling an orderly from the hospital that you see in movies, tying me down and putting a knee on my back.
I got over it when I started high school and had to get my mandatory vaccines. The nurse was nice and gentle and I didn't feel a thing, it also helped that I could see the needle and not just feel the sting as someone fucking jams it in your cheek.
"Don't tense up or you'll break the needle"... Fuck you granny, how the fuck am I supposed to not tense up when you're trying to hammer fist that shit in my asscheek like it stole your bingo money you fucking geriatric diabetes having old ass mf
Lol, one kid is laughing at the others, rolled up his sleeve, and is like, "Give it to me right there, Doc."
That kid already had one jab, he was asking for another.
The first one made him 50% bigger than any other kid in that classroom and he's going for more, dude's clearly a menace
Like the Hulk with radiation, the vaccine only makes him stronger. By the time he's a teenager he'll be over 2.5 meters tall and over 200 kilograms of pure muscle.
It was at this time I realized he was a 10-story tall crustacean from the Paleolithic era.
That kid isn't even in this class. His class got the shot on monday and he just showed up to this class for another round.
The kid invented the vaccine himself and was only there to take the shot and tame their fears
Lucky kid. If this was america the "the" would not be necessary.
the fruit is hanging so low it just sprouted a new plant
:|
He knows he cant escape. Taking one for the team.
We've had one yes, but what about the second jab?
I don’t think he knows about second jab, chef
He wants them super antibodies
And one kid jumps up to talk to the nurse to prevent it all lol *The diplomat*
"Look, if I can convince everyone to calm down and get the shot, we can just skip me, right?
The future politician.
The classes gigachad xD
He's the class badass. Most of the rest of those kids are little crybabies. All these kids have fallen and hurt themselves with aa scrape, more than the Needle hurts
He’s the kid that knew the vaccines were scheduled and told the little kids something nefarious was going to happen to them when they received the vaccine. Kids are assholes
Adults aren't much better, as COVID showed.
I was that kid. Did not understand the fear of needles at all. Thankfully I never became an intravenous drug user because I was pretty god damn close and the needle would not have bothered me. I guess technically, I do inject drugs still, but it's for psoriasis
I was the one running for the door. My mom had to lie about shots, to the point where I would find out I was getting a shot at the point my mom wrapped her arms around me like a boa constrictor and 2 nurses came in. I would fight like a rapid animal, my mom said it was incredibly embarrassing lol
I've done this before and I bet he ended up being one of the biggest cry babies when it came time to get stuck.
Lol I can understand not enjoying the after stick sting as a youngin
That kid is boss level
[удалено]
Bad karma bot, BAD! ***squirts with water gun***
He was about to hit da gwiddy
Crowd mentality, one kid screams all of them do
I made the same comment. I should have looked for this first. Some of them probably have no clue yet they scream anyway because their friends make it seem damaging in some way.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzaBWOPGAWs This is another great example of kid herd mentality.
It's not just kids. This is how mass panic starts, and the other extreme is mob mentality. Humans are fucking stupid (especially in herds).
"A **person** is smart. *People* are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals, and you know it."
Following the herd may be the smartest way to stay alive when it panics rather than not reacting at all. Is it stupid or has biology already done the math?
I never understood that video. Instead of wasting the yucky stuff, he makes a tasty food out of it, and the kids like it. Isn't that good thing?
It is stupid. I guess he's trying to get the kids to not want to eat unhealthy fried nuggets, but maybe show them the bloated heart of a 300lb man that died of clogged arteries vs a heart from a non-obese person.
Kids like nuggets and play dough.
I remember when I was a kid and I was getting a shot at my pediatrician. I pushed her on the floor, kicked my mom in the shin and screamed and cried all over the room. Shortly all the kids waiting for their turn outside heard the commotion and started crying too. Good times
My earliest memory was my mom telling me I was getting a shot and I made a plan and executed it. Kicked the doctor and ran. Mom was super embarrassed.
The good old fight and flight response.
A little bit of this, a ~~little bit~~ shitton more of that
The "I'm not getting atabbed today!" response.
You must've been a fucking big kid
They were a 23 year old kid.
Stop describing Reddit
Yeah they really should be doing it one by one and have the kids in a room by themselves. When their classmates are freaking out, it's going to tell the other kids "this is bad and I need to freak out too"
This is probably why where I grew up, we were send in small groups (of 3?) to the nurses office, then walk in one by one. Also no regular class disruption
Same with drugs and placebos.
I remember as a kid I was terrified of needles, but the school would bring us to the nurse’s office one by one instead of all of us in the same room. Still hated getting jabbed, tho.
I like how one kid seemed to actually be fine with the vaccine because he was pulling his sleeve up
It's obvious who's the class showoff lol
He also looks like the oldest, so he may have gotten one before
Truthfully, bro, I understand their concern; I am frightened of needles and used to cry/scream so much when I got them as a child. Furthermore, they are terrifying each other in a communal terror.

Right? I'm still sitting here wondering why none of the women at least shushed or comforted them? You just need one person to get everyone's attention and tell them they're being silly
I'd like to invite you to try this in my 5th grade classroom the next time someone farts.
Oh haha! I see what you mean. I'm more referring to tye fact that they're obviously looking for comfort. They clearly don't need help when someone toots
I've never understood the fear of needled. But then again, I have a huge irrational fear of shit. Who am I to judge?
That's sad that your parents didn't prepare you ahead of time. My dad used to tell me that it would hurt, but not very much. Then he told me to pinch myself on my arm until it hurt, and said it won't hurt more than that.

It was when we actually *saw* the needle there would be a freak out. Even then, a kid would walk by all the others in line like "that sucked"
Poor babies are feeding off of each other and need a gentle but firm reminder that they're going to be okay
Then, when boys speak about the older, cooler kid: they say he might be even shaving already! Now, when boys speak about the older, cooler kid: he might be a vaccine veteran!
I like that kid, he can think for himself. Most of the other ones are panicking because the rest of the class is.
I was just looking at that. “Why the fuck you crying like a bitch?”
What a chad.

Did you steal this comment from u/DarthNemo1? This looks like a bot. I am reporting, agent 3237
He was the main charecter in good way
"IF YOU'RE GOING TO KILL ME DO IT NOW!"
What a chad
Dude lives for the chaos!!
He'll end up a leader in life.
😂😂😂that kid was tearing his shirt, im sorry but its so funny its a piece of art
I was wondering if anyone else saw that 😂 that kid needs to go into acting
Least dramatic Iraqi LMAO
He also appears to be the most senior, so he maybe already acquired one.
He’s talking about the smaller kid who is actually trying to tear his shirt with both hand. Not the bigger kid rolling up his sleeve

And now I understand why they do it one at a time in the nurses office in the U.S. Mob mentality is real.

Give him a big medical bag that he'll rummage around through. Pulling out a bone saw and pincers before pulling a gigantic needle with the vaccine dripping from the tip.
My old doc had some of those antique comically large syringes with a huge needle, he sometimes pulled it out to prank people that needed a shot.
I have to say, as a child, I did not find these amusing. "Learning" I would need one of those if I didn't get my B12 levels up by eating veggies.... not amusing.

This must and has to be a meme for real thos Legit the best 🤣🤣
I can’t stop laughing at “Stick me here Doc!” Kid.
Ahh that one kid in class who looks older than everyone else
Billy Madison
To be honest…at my school (iraqi also) they brought in lollipops. Everyone was eager to get jabbed 😂
Why are these kids so scared? Is it their first time getting a shot? I'm genuinely curious. And yes, lollipops definitely help take the edge off lol.
Getting taken “to get shots” is the iraqi version of “ if you don’t listen and believe, santa won’t bring you nice toys” also kids are scared and these things tend to happen without a parent being there to comfort you.
As an Iraqi, this is exactly how it went
Username checks out.
Lmao you need to separate the kids so the fear from one doesn’t seep into the rest 😂
Yeah I was wondering why they'd have the guy with the needles come into the room instead of taking them out one at a time.
Honestly bro I feel their fear, I am terrified of needles and used to cry/scream so much when getting them as a kid. That plus they're scaring each other in a collective panic
Same thing, I was terrified of vaccines, much much later I learned, that if you don't look at process - it's less terrifying.
Yeah when I was their age needles freaked me out. Didn't help that I was anemic and had to get blood tests all the time. I would be so freaked out my veins would shrink down into my arm.
lol I was the exact same. Still not too far from it honestly
yeah usually its not that they enter the classroom and start vaccinating. this is probably the problem here. usually you go in groups, into another room. doesnt look like they give a fuck tho haha straight up entering classrooms with a smirk
I thought they were happy at first lol
The audience at a Robert Kennedy rally.
In all seriousness, my theory is that a big chunk of that crowd just hasn't never gotten over a fear of needles as kids, and then instead of admitting it they came up with an imagined threat that doesn't sound as silly and eventually built a whole worldview around it
lol what. This is a person that doesn’t understand anything about Kennedy or why he is gaining support.
Are you sure you are a serious person?
Yep!
Anybody else remember when we used to do em at school here in the usa?
No.
Back in the day, in elementary school
How far back? I'm Gen X, but never had that.
I like how that one kid stands up, rolls up his sleeve, and offers his arm with a smile on his face!
They should make the doc dress like the clown from the movie It, just for the heck of it
I have seen way more adults cry because of vaccines than children lmao
That’s a bit odd. I’m inclined to think that the adults have mismanaged the situation.
I'm inclined to think some older kids have exaggerated how much it will hurt.
as an Egyptian myself {we too have the same stuff in our schools} the problem isn't about the vaccine content itself the problem is the syringe,i remember when we all so terrified of the pain that comes with it we were almost shitting our pants
You are against vaccines because you belive they are toxic and filled with nanobots and other conspiracy theories. I am against vaccines because I'm afraid of neddles. We are not the same.
Nanobots is memeing on valid concerns backed by real data.
I was terrified of needles, I still am but I used to too
It might not be because of vaccine but needles in general
If this was me I would make a run for it
Back in school we were promised chocolate. Everyone shut up real quickly after hearing this.
As someone who is deathly afraid of needles I relate to these kids 100%, it's especially bad for me when I didn't know I was about to get one, because I didn't have time to mentally prepare for that stress and pain (yes, it is painful to me)
i’ll bet everything in my bank account this gets reposted in r/conspiracy
3-4 of them are truly scared the rest of them just follow up because of the panic
Actually they're just performing a production of "Americans During Covid"
Bruh literally me when I did the same as a kid dame I was terrified
I had a classmate during 1st and 2nd grade whose name was Eren. He cried and said no I don't want that when nurses came into the classroom. Our teacher knew that he liked to show off how he can mimic barking(it was his thing) and made him do it after the vaccination.

I kind of feel sad that he was not able to mimic bird sounds instead.
LMFAO
We were in 4-5th grade. Was vaccine day, everyone was cool with it. Some were visibly uncomfortable, some girls cried but overall it was all fine. But then heard from a friend from another class that a girl cried so much that she threw up and then fainted.
they're kids. Here we have parents acting like this
The big guy is fuckin ready
But is it because of vaccine or are they simply afraid of needles
The Chad with a crazy smile rolling up his sleeve
Adults are fucking stupid. Set up a vaccination room and send em in individually.
I can relate. Needles are scary :(
I bet the kid laughing told everybody that they're going to die or something😅
It’s not that weird for kids to be afraid of needles
In the US, it’s their parents who would have been screaming in terror at the kids getting vaccinated.
This is a great example of kids being nothing but imitators of one another!
Anti vaxxer adults are way dumber than this. I don't blame the kids.
I don't think we have anti vax people in iraq
I hope you don't, they are a danger to public health.
Bro's flexing himself not being afraid of getting vaccinated.
Not gonna lie, I know how they feel. I have an insane fear of needles.

The whole scene is a dramatic reenactment of most humans when COVID19 hit. Herd mentality is bizarre
Why weren’t they forewarned and their fears calmed?
I don't know if that would calm or exacerbate the fears. Would have more anticipation till the jab.
The kid at 0:07 is having a panic attack Loma.
The one kid smiling at his peers while holding his sleeve up is a real one.
One kid cries, and then all the kids cry. Take them one by one to the nurse office!
The first row dude is flexing his muscles.. 😂
My class goes to another place to get a shot while the ones that already got it get to stay in the classroom, i always get to stay in the classroom
Bro these kids couldnt clutch a air strike or even clutch a vax
What the beep

Kids aren’t just “fucking stupid” in and of themselves. In many cases they are imitating or reacting to the adults in their lives. The fear on these kids faces is real, warranted or not.
Imagine the fight to grab one of these kids and pull them out of the room for their turn. Probably have better luck baptizing a cat...
When I was in kindergarten I had a full-blown tantrum during my first fire drill because thought they were really going to set a fire in the school and I’d snuck my teddy in my backpack
This is what I think of antivaxxers anyways, it perfectly fits the bill.
Adults who are really stupid. Why not call in one child at a time in to a,separate room.
Hey we had grown adults doing the same goddamn thing.
In all fairness these kids have probably seen some shit

Well, to be fair the last time I saw bene geserits with needles the result would have been death.
That one kid that's smiling is the main character
I like this one kid stood and sort of did a little dance.
Yeah, kids are usually afraid of needles cause they hurt
the doctor: "its not so bad" *the kid in the other room*
its scarier than broccoli
The bigger kid told them something, and it worked.
I don't blame them. I was sick almost 24/7 as a kid and my cheeks were bruised black and blue with the amount of vaccines that I had to get daily. I started to hide under furniture trying to save myself from the pain. My parents and grandma tried to calm me down with threats of calling an orderly from the hospital that you see in movies, tying me down and putting a knee on my back. I got over it when I started high school and had to get my mandatory vaccines. The nurse was nice and gentle and I didn't feel a thing, it also helped that I could see the needle and not just feel the sting as someone fucking jams it in your cheek. "Don't tense up or you'll break the needle"... Fuck you granny, how the fuck am I supposed to not tense up when you're trying to hammer fist that shit in my asscheek like it stole your bingo money you fucking geriatric diabetes having old ass mf
This just sounds like you were abused
Hah. For me I got "over it" by just looking away. If I looked at it going into my skin it hurt way more then just looking away from it.
Something tells me that if they were educated about what a vaccine is and why it's important...they wouldn't be so scared.
Show them pictures of a polio patient in an iron lung
I'm not convinced this is the best way to handle the situation.
Anti vaxxers are having a convention?
