The government's latest efforts to encourage vaccination rates among the elderly has seen the birth of another music video (MV).
This time, the catchy tune is carried by getai stars Liu Lingling and Wang Lei, as well as host Marcus Chin.
Uploaded on the evening on Aug. 28, the MV has quickly gone viral with more than 2,800 shares and 100,000 views.

The message for seniors remains simple: get vaccinated to protect yourself.
Singing in a mix of dialect and mandarin, there are nostalgic set-ups of a market, provision shop, and coffee shop.
They stars are also accompanied by energetic back-up dancers.
Behind the scenes
What's interesting, however, is the fact that the bulk of the music video (up until 1:26) was filmed in one take.
Local director Royston Tan, who was behind the shoot, told Mothership that the day entailed 15 rehearsals and 15 takes before they achieved the final result.
The entire process took close to eight hours.
Here's a peek at the coordination behind-the-scenes.
