So having people tell you to get a flu shot just hasn鈥檛 motivated you? How about if they sing it to you?
Swing by the Reflecting Pond on Friday, Nov. 15, and hear some swinging tunes from 性视界传媒鈥檚 Crescendudes a cappella group that has teamed up with 性视界传媒 Health Services to spread the word to students about vaccinations and other healthy behaviors.
The group has remixed some popular song lyrics to promote the benefits of the shots and encourage listeners to head over to Health Services 鈥� like most members of the group did recently for their shots, said Crescendudes president Zach Anderson.
One of the songs, for example, is the popular 鈥淪tand By Me,鈥� only in this version the group sings 鈥淚f you鈥檙e sick, 诲辞苍鈥檛 stand by me,鈥� said Anderson.聽聽聽
The singers will perform sets of their regular songs at 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. in front of the Mathematical Sciences Building, and three songs promoting flu shots and healthy habits at 12:30 p.m. Other performances will be on select Fridays around campus through flu season.
Health Services plans to shoot a video of the live performance to be available to show elsewhere, said Megan Pabian, coordinator of university relations and public affairs for 性视界传媒 Health Services.
