The executive is calling in backup as it continues to promote coronavirus vaccine booster shots.

For months now, officials have been encouraging people to get infectious-disease against infectious-disease, and in recent months, have introduced booster shots into the conversation.

In the clip, the quintet, dressed to the nines, harmonize in true Pentatonix fashion as they sing about the vaccine.

“Get your booster. Just like a seat for a little kid. Just like the heat from a rocket ship,” they sing, “Sometimes all you need is a booster.”

It seems that viewers weren’t terribly pleased with the music video.
