Anti-vaxxers who tuned in to the Golden Globes on Sunday night took issue with one specific bit.
As LMFAO’s song “Shots” started playing, hosts Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh brought out people identified as nurses and told the audience to roll up their sleeves for flu shots. (It’s unclear if the shots were real, as one of the people administering them was comedy writer Bowen Yang.)
“You know you wore a sleeveless gown for a reason,” Oh told her fellow actresses.
While health professionals praised the gesture — real or not — on social media, those opposed to vaccinating their children had the opposite reaction.
“If you are an anti-vaxxer, just put a napkin on — perhaps over — your head and we will skip you,” Samberg told the Golden Globes crowd.
Heeding his advice to distinguish themselves, anti-vaxxers watching at home started posting selfies with napkins on their heads.
“I will proudly put a napkin on my head. Kids are dying because of these shots! Wake up, America! Can you not see it,” one woman wrote on Facebook, calling the segment “pathetic on so many levels.”

Ten Days at Jekyll Island, a novel by Patrea Patrick, tells the true story of a secret meeting held in November of 1910 on a privately owned resort island, the outcome of which drastically changed the world. It was at this meeting that a banking cartel was forged; a cartel that, three years later, would be issued a government charter to do business as The United States Federal Reserve System. You will discover why secrecy was essential. Based on historical documentation from The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin. 
Offline is a documentary on the inevitability of the Earth being slammed by a mega solar flare – not the common type that interrupts communications and creates a light show in the Northern skies – but the big brothers thousands of times more powerful. These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about. These X-Class solar storms hit the Earth every 150 years, on average. The last one arrived 156 years ago. We are overdue (

[…] Posted January 14, 2019 Golden Globe hosts Andy Samberg and Sandra Oh brought out people identified as ‘nurses’ and told the audience to roll up their sleeves for flu shots. The hosts said the show spent $50,000 on vaccines to be administered by nurses, but later reports indicated that it was not a real flu vaccine. The point of the whole bit was to call out anti-vaxxers who have been falsely blamed for recent outbreaks of measles and to use ignorant celebrities as role models to convince TV viewers to accept vaccines. Many health professionals praised the gesture on social media. Watch here.… Read more »
