Get Vaccinated
Tough Alaskan
You’re a tough Alaskan. (deep/gruff male voice: Yeah)
You drive a big truck to protect yourself on the highway. (Yeah)
You carry a big gun to protect yourself in the woods. (Yeah)
But what are going to do about protecting yourself from that itty-bitty flu virus that can lay you out sicker than a dog? (squeaky: What?)
And while we’re at it - what about your family and co-workers? What if they don’t get a vaccine and spread the flu to you? (Wha-do-I-do?)
Get your flu vaccine – before the flu gets you! (Yeah)
