'We're all vaxxed!' Teletubbies announce Covid 'vaccination,' bewildering fans and angering anti-jab activists

Children's television stars the Teletubbies announced on Wednesday that they had been fully 'vaccinated' against Covid-19 - drawing mixed reactions from current and former fans of the show.

"We're all vaxxed! Just in time for a Tubby hot summer," announced the Teletubbies on their official Twitter account on Wednesday, along with four photos showing the vaccination cards of the four characters: Tinky-Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa, and Po.

All four received their first dose on July 1 and their second dose on July 22, according to the cards, despite July 22 still being two weeks away. Tinky-Winky and Laa-Laa received "Noo-nson & Noo-nson" vaccines - a play on Johnson & Johnson - while Dipsy and Po received "AstraTubbica."

Though the announcement received a lot of fanfare, with more than 225,000 likes and 46,000 retweets, many fans of the show were also bewildered by the stunt.

Several social media users questioned why the vaccination cards showed the Teletubbies as having been born six years after their show debuted, while others asked why Tinky-Winky and Laa-Laa had received two doses of a vaccine based on Johnson & Johnson - which fully vaccinates with just one shot.

One person was particularly disturbed that the announcement confirms the Teletubbies is set on Earth and that the characters are "susceptible to disease."

The post also received criticism for seemingly promoting the vaccination of children, when medical professionals are still debating whether vaccinating minors against Covid-19 has more benefits than risks. Opponents of the vaccine in general questioned whether the four fictional characters would receive some of the side effects recorded from Covid-19 vaccines, including blood clots, Bell's palsy, and myocarditis.

I cant believe:-)

All of You in America are like little kids! :-)

KRNABRNY What you don't get about Americans is that they've never had to deal without all of their freedoms at least in the last 100 years and they are much more psychologically affected by this Covid madness than the rest of the world who has been somewhat used to restriction and submission. Now if you are not American why in the world are you using our mascot, to criticize ? This place is for freedom loving people from all over the world who understand..

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-08T18:06:14Z

Deni ja know history of America...a little, but i cant rememer...when Americans was free?

As a man from another country called Poland, as a man who knows more than the history of his country, I could learn a few things about Americans.

To my knowledge, AMERICANS HAVE NEVER BEEN FREE!You've always had slaves, either Indians or blacks or Chinese. So if you talk about freedom, I understand that you only mean a specific social group?

But even that is not the most important thing. The most important thing I learned about America is that AMERICANS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MONEY SLAVES !!!

Your Declaration of Independence, these are just beautiful words, they are not reflected in reality!

I'm already writing a bit on this forum, but I have to add here. I am not your critic. I cheer the Americans a lot.

But the truth is what it is!

Deni · 2021-07-08T18:12:49Z

KRNABRNY You are definitely entitled to your opinion and even though I was not born here, I am a patriot and do feel partial to my country just like anyone would about their own. No one said we were perfect but we have a different outlook on rights and it seems that a lot of people still want to come here after all of our faults..As far as unfair slavery practices, we have come a long way from the shame and I don't think there is a country that does not have similar issues , anti Semitic, or anti-gypsy and so on..but I know that entire countries are slaves to their governments because they let communism and socialism in . In any case, no hard feelings !! Cheers !!

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-08T18:20:26Z

Deni Can you define word "Patriot"? What its mean for you?

Please, dont tell me love to own country, becouse i gice you qeation, what is love?;-)

Deni · 2021-07-08T18:28:03Z

KRNABRNY Lol ! I'm not up for justifying myself, however I do love people from Poland, I have relatives there and I appreciate your country. It's one of those things if you have to ask..

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-08T18:47:38Z

Deni I wrote it all down because the word "Patryot" is very DANGEROUS!

I will tell you why in a moment.

When, in 1938, the German SS troops attacked Poland, there were only German PATRIOTS among them!

They were under the command of another great PATRYOT ..... Adolf Hitler.

When the revolution broke out in Russia and people were killing each other in the streets, another great PATRYOT ... Vladimir Ilyich Lenin was in power.

Later we had PATRYOT ... Mr. Stalin.

Before that, there were also many of them, for example the wonderful PATRYOT ... Julius Caesar.

So, as you can see, the word PATRYOT can mean EVERYTHING ... or NOTHING

Deni · 2021-07-08T23:15:46Z

KRNABRNY Well, I really never heard this interpretation until now and never even thought of it with such implications. To me, it makes sense to love the country you are a citizen of, to be living with integrity, love God and family and be useful to your community, contributing to the world and country you live in by working hard and doing good to others. Honoring your leaders and supporting them if you respect them, but most of all be a lawful citizen that is free and obey the local laws as a good citizen if they don't interfere with your family's well being and your religious beliefs. Not sure what else is there, but I think I covered what most people think of as a patriot. Yes I love the flag and patriotic songs but all those are a gravy on top founded on respect to the fellow men that are living in the same country and to all the servicemen that sacrificed themselves for the freedoms we cherish. I'm pretty sure that most countries have similar beliefs.

I guess by your definition it would mean nothing but that is not how it feels to me. It means to be a good citizen of your country and to respect the world around you.

Not a fan of any of the barbaric leaders you mentioned above.

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-09T00:49:57Z

Deni ..and, however, the Nazi Germans were also PATRYIOTS! They did it for the love of the Great Reich!

Your homing missiles have a name "PATRYOT"

Have you ever used them to defend your territories or to kill people in other countries?

THEREFORE I WRITTEN THAT , WORD "PATRYOT" ..... IT'S DANGEROUS!

Deni · 2021-07-09T03:43:59Z

KRNABRNY If you say so , it must be true..

KRNABRNY The way I defend my country is to stand by my rights of freedom that is written all throughout our constitution and bill of rights; so I guess the definition is different than how it is in the dictionary because I don't plan on killing over it but I am proud to defend with words and with the choices I make. TO me that is patriotism, to love and cherish your freedom and bring it to practice . Anyhow, I think we beat this subject to death and I hope you can come to a conclusion that is not too controversial because I'm all about peace and understanding.

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-09T06:55:56Z

Deni You may be after peace and understanding.But if so, explain to me why the newer military drones were called "Predator"?

KRNABRNY · 2021-07-09T08:21:20Z

KRNABRNY Maybe it is so, that there is no need to use such ambiguous words as PATRYOT?

Maybe it is enough to use simple and unambiguous words like HONEST, TRUTH?

Perhaps the word PATRYOT serves too often the particular interests of certain people?

For example, those who tell young guys. Hi! We need you! We'll give you $ 400 a day for killing people in the US Army!

YOU ARE NOT GUILTY! YOU DO IT BECAUSE YOU ARE PATRYJOT !!

Deni · 2021-07-09T16:29:45Z

KRNABRNY I see where you're coming from and I do understand, the government has manipulated wars for years and messing up a lot of lives, of the young military and then dumping the vets with no help after they've screwed them up in the head all in the name of their missions of power and control. I do see where you're coming from and am not naive not to see it. I do however separate things in what I love about my country and what's wrong with it. Yes there is a lot of wrong and military drones are probably going to replace the people with their AI use. We are living in an insane time that has escalated too fast. The only thing to keep one going is their faith, family and be at peace because the end it near. I do see your points and I relate and understand.

endescent · 2021-07-08T17:50:45Z

The show always creeped me out. If I had kids I would probably not have them watch TV, especially garbage like Teletubbies. Look how desperate they are using kid shows to push the agenda.

Deni · 2021-07-08T17:59:06Z

endescent I know, it is a disgusting show I never let my kids watch it; not sure why it has such a following and is still on the air after all these years.. It always creeped me out.. The propaganda is so sick and strong that parents should not allow their kids to watch anything that has to do with it. We want to be able to give them some fighting power in the next generations and not go along with everything they are told..glad my kids are grown now and see things for what they are..

oldschoolrider · 2021-07-09T12:11:12Z

would you know, and now you do!!

this is a clinton epstein owned channel ffs, yes, true to my word!!

Deni · 2021-07-09T16:30:43Z

oldschoolrider Ugh ! Simply disgusting ! Sick world !!

A contemporary manifestation of an American patriot are the armed militia in most every state in the country. The historical origin of the patriot, in the USA, is in the nation’s creation.

No doubt, patriot is mighty power.

And we know power can be used for good and bad. The same is true for patriot.

There is no shame in patriot, only responsibility. Only man has the key to responsibility. The individual man.

Deni · 2021-07-09T22:14:41Z

nor I suppose if I had to attach myself with a group , it would be to an armed group that can protect me from those who impose their ways via force, however it is hard to trust militia types that are super racist and criminals as well as the criminal military types. It's best to stay out of sight I guess. I do enjoy the fact that these days it means a threat to what the average "joe" thinks it's acceptable , however I do not line up with anything that would be harmful to anyone. It simply means I do not consent with the politics of today because it infringes on people's rights and freedoms of choice.

Quote of the Day

State power has its own limits defined by the fact that it is authority that reaches people from outside. State power cannot oversee and dictate the creative states of the soul and mind, the inner states of love, freedom and goodwill. The state cannot demand from its citizens faith, prayer, love, goodness and conviction. It cannot regulate scientific, religious and artistic creation. It should not intervene in moral, family and daily private life, and only when extremely necessary should it impinge on people's economic initiative and creativity.
