CBS News reports that a German man said he wanted to spread the message about getting vaccinated — so he laid out food and let loose some 700 sheep and goats who then formed an outline of a COVID-19 syringe. We guess you use the tools you have at hand, but … sheep?
A team-builder in Germany used about 700 sheep and goats to form the shape of a COVID-19 vaccine syringe on Monday, with food placed on the ground to lure the animals into place. The man said he wanted to spread the message about getting vaccinated. pic.twitter.com/yL0tSUQ6Jx

He’s definitely spreading a message.
The irony here is pretty thick…

You guys have to see the metaphor here, right?

That's not even slightly creepy.

Someone’s trolling here. I just can’t figure out who.

Sends a bit of a different kind of message but hey you do you man.

Perfectly symbolic. Good grief.

I don’t think it means what you think it means

We’ll that’s creepy, cultish and dumb
— Matt Barber (@jmattbarber) January 5, 2022
I don't think his message worked in the way he thought it might.

Me thinks @CBSNews got duped into a story here. Lol. The farmer absolutely knew without a shadow of a doubt what he was doing 😂😂😂😂

Trolling us in plain sight.

I don’t think the issue is awareness about the vaccine. I think pretty much everyone is aware of it.
— Doug (@LampBurning) January 5, 2022
Was this a pro or anti vaccine message?

Humans are not sheep.

The punch lines write themselves. It’s amazing.
— Don (@DoaGoodJob) January 5, 2022
He spread his message, but was he just trolling the media and they fell for it, or did he actually think this would “raise awareness” of the vaccine?
