United Way of Coastal Fairfield County
Vaccinated Dinosaurs?
Date posted:
If there’s one way to get a child’s attention, it’s probably superheroes...and a dinosaur! At least that was the approach United Way of Coastal Fairfield County, Connecticut, took to make vaccine clinics more inviting for children. Adult staff dressed in superhero costumes, and the chief executive officer greeted children in an inflatable Tyrannosaurus Rex costume to help spread the word about vaccinations. During the Omicron surge, one clinic provided over 200 vaccinations.
