Syringe phobia has several specifications: Fear of needles, fear of blood, fear of pain, fear of doctors. There are probably a few more. With this scenario you can help people to stop letting their fear stop them from wanting to be vaccinated. Alternatively, you can also trigger to take a blood sample.

Description of the scenario

The patient first stands in a treatment room with a doctor standing next to a chair.  The patient can go to this chair and sit down. In reality, he sits down on a chair in your practice at this time. As soon as he sits down, he can see a realistic-looking upper body with an exposed left upper arm. The doctor now approaches and administers an injection to the virtual upper arm with a slightly larger syringe than in reality. Or the doctor takes a blood sample.

As a therapist, you can trigger the following actions yourself:

• Make a doctor appear (scenario starts first without a doctor).
• Select whether the upper body should look feminine or male.

The doctor gives an injection into the virtual left upper arm. Or takes a blood draw.
