The Arkansas Department of Health decided to “meet the people where they are” with their new COVID-19 vaccine PSA.
In the viral clip that has taken social media by storm, “hustler” Richard Johnson details how the pandemic slowed down his “selling” business and motivated him to get vaccinated.
“If you live the type of lifestyle that I live, you out here in these streets and you hustlin, –a entrepreneur like me– why not do it safely? So I want everybody to take this seriously. Take a shot at staying healthy. Get the vaccine,” Richard urges.
From Richard’s gold Cuban link necklace to him referring to being in the streets, Twitter had tons of opinions on the commercial. Some users were offended, while others found it hilarious.
