north yorkshire s police fire and crime panel has unanimously passed a vote of no confidence in the commissionered of needles. so much so, she has had to seek therapy for a phobia that stretches back to her childhood. translation: it started during puberty. - when i see a needle or have to get a shot, ijust want to leave. i'll tear the place down just to avoid getting a shot. but for astrid and millions of others like her, salvation may be at hand. this is the bubble gun, a high—tech alternative that uses lasers rather than needles to administer a jab. within a millisecond, the glass that contains the liquid is heated by a laser, a bubble is created in the liquid, pushing the liquid at velocities in the order of 100 kilometres per hour, and we can see how it penetrates about one millimetre. never has this seemed more relevant. for nearly a year now, injections and vaccinations have been taking place all around the world. could the bubble gun, said to be essentially pain—free, encourage the more reluctant to come forward for their shot? translation: in my opinion, - this is a good solution since
