As promised, Walgreens has reached the point where COVID-19 vaccine supply is outstripping demand enough to turn on marketing. This Sunday, the Deerfield, Illinois-based drugstore chain will begin airing a campaign encouraging consumers to get vaccinated.
Called “This Is Our Shot,” the push includes a 30-second commercial featuring many of the things—such as cap-throwing at graduations, hand clapping at sporting events and candle blowing at birthday parties—Americans could enjoy after they get their inoculation. Such activities are shown happening in reverse, cycling back to the coronavirus shot and branded Walgreens red bandage as a new beginning.
