One pointed out that it could have been dangerous as well.

Earlier, a funny video made rounds on social media that saw a man sitting on a sofa in a terrified state while waiting for his turn.
He begins to cry when his arm is being swabbed ahead of the vaccination. He takes a look at the needle which makes him more scared. The security guard, who was behind him, looks towards the other side.
Once the needle finally goes into his arm, the man cries louder and starts shaking. In the video, people sitting behind him can be seen laughing.
India has reported at least 33 million COVID-19 cases while the death toll has reached 446,000.
