Shameless promotions....

I wish DS didn't LOVE Elmo. I would boycott, but that wouldn't be fair to DS.

Do you have a link??? The powers of google are failing me....

The only thing I found was Elmo telling people to wash their hands and sneeze into their elbows.

Go to this page: http://www.flu.gov/psa

Scroll down and you'll see a video with Elmo and some green muppet.

I have seen those (thanks for answerring, though!) but I still do not see Elmos specifically telling kids to tell their parent to give them a flu shot.

I didn't see a direct reference either, but he's definitely part of a vax-promoting site. Why, oh why, does our government promote this shot when it is so ineffective?
