A pharmacy in Mount Vernon Iowa has an Operations Director named Roger Thompson ease the fear of children ranging from five to 11 years of age who dresses up as a superhero from the Marvel and D C Comics roster to inject the children with needles on their arms to protect them from COVID 19. It is interesting for the children who are scared of taking a shot in their arm to protect them from the disease if the person who is doing the work is a regular person. Roger dresses up as a hero like Captain America, Batman, Spider Man and other male superheroes since children look up to the fictional characters as their heroes which places their minds at ease when they take the injection to their arms which is a clever way to protect them from the disease that has caused heartbreak around our world since 2020.

@RubyHawk What I know these days is that children like our current heroes as well as the Ninja Turtles.

That's sure creative. Now if they had done that with the anual tb tests I may not have had to be held down and broken several things in the process. I detest needles and being held down only makes it worse.

I know how you feel since I do not like needles either but I try to tough it out.

Nice one, I wouldn't have thought of that. It especially makes sense in the case of Captain America, since medical science made him a superhero in the first place.

I do remember Captain America's origin as a buck private named Steve Rogers who was too skinny to join the military and he was the first and only super soldier.
