    Hello. Thank you for your work. This could be interesting for teaching and learning if there weren’t mistakes as in this transcript above. The recording is accurate but the transcript, not at all. I’ve corrected it here above. Know, that to “get someone shot” as the original transcript says, is to cause someone to receive a bullet… from a gun. Yikes! It’s not at all the same thing as “getting a shot” i.e. vaccine, or even less, “giving shots” in a hospital or other medical facility, i.e. adminstering a vaccine/vaccines. Hope this helps!
