Letter: Stop Photographing Injections

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

I have commented on practically every FB photo/mention of the vaccine in recent months with a photo of the nurse/pc/whomever, injecting the patient.

Why, are photographers insistent on showing us the INJECTION going into the ARM?? I am not but family members and friends of mine, actually do faint at the sight of blood and or injections going in, not even necessarily to their arm.

How do we STOP this at the very least from appearing in our local media photos? What is the point? I don't get it? We all know what it looks like and feels like ... Right?
