What are the ‘vaxxies’, the fashion photos in the USA?

The term ‘vaxxie‘It sounds like Chinese when it is read for the first time, but the truth is that it is the union of two of the most used words in current times: vaccine (‘ vax ‘,’ vaccine ‘, for its English form) and’ selfie ‘. And it is that the ‘vaxxie’ is precisely what its name says: take a picture when you are getting the vaccine covid-19. This phenomenon has become especially notable in the United States. And, obviously, you have to upload that image to social networks.

For many it is simply one more way to use the networks to bring acquaintances up to date with the latest news in life. The same as uploading a photo of food or the route you have followed after a running session.

But it has one more reading: the outreach work. Vaccination against the coronavirus is essential to overcome the global health and economic crisis that has lasted for more than a year. However, vaccines still arouse suspicion in many. And that is precisely why it is important to give visibility in networks. For this reason, some immunization centers in the United States have even improvised ‘photocalls’.

That is why the fashion of the ‘vaxxies’ has not only triumphed among anonymous people: also celebrities have also joined this initiative.
