'Spider-Man' gets vaccinated vs. COVID-19 in Marikina

A friendly neighborhood “Spider-Man” was among residents who recently got vaccinated against COVID-19 in Marikina.

According to a report by “Unang Balita,” Alfred Dizon caused quite a stir when he arrived at the vaccination facility in full costume. Photos of “Spider-Man” getting vaccinated in Marikina taken by Justine Rain Go have gone viral on social media.

Staff initially thought Dizon was there to play a prank, but they eventually assisted him after seeing his vaccination card.

Dizon said he wanted to get his shot as “Spider-Man” to give off good vibes and encourage more people to get vaccinated.

“With great power comes great responsibility,” he said, referencing a line from the 2012 Spider-Man film. —Margaret Claire Layug/JCB, GMA News
