Elmo talks about getting COVID vaccine; Ted Cruz has a problem with that
Sesame Street released a public service ad on Tuesday of Elmo talking about getting vaccinated against COVID-19. Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz was not a fan.
The video shows the beloved children's Muppet chatting with his father, Louie, after receiving the vaccine, saying he felt a "little pinch," but that it was "OK." After wondering himself about Elmo getting the COVID-19 shot, Louie said he talked to their pediatrician so he could "make the right choice."
"I learned that Elmo getting vaccinated is the best way to keep himself, our friends, our neighbors and everyone else healthy and enjoying the things they love," Louie said.
On Wednesday, Cruz first thanked Sesame Street for showing parents asking questions about the vaccine, but then turned his attention to Elmo, a character who is perpetually 3 years old.
"You then have @elmo aggressively advocate for vaccinating children UNDER 5. But you cite ZERO scientific evidence for this," Cruz wrote, adding a link to his website.
