(SPOT.ph) There is a whole lot of information going around online, and we're not just talking about COVID-19. We totally get it if you sometimes just want to shut everything out and go on a sort of info cleanse—but that's not something ideal for the long-term either. So here's one thing you can try out: take a look at Arshie Lagra's TikTok. The pharmacist has quite the following online and his mix of informative and super entertaining vids shows why.

We know you've seen the so-called #MagnetChallenge going around! Lagra made it clear why it wouldn't make sense for vaccines to have such a strange effect—while also making it hilariously clear that people should wash their arms. And that's just one short-but-sweet explainer of many!

Who is Arshie Lagra and why is he one of the Filipino TikTokers to follow?

Lagra, who also goes by Arshiethromycin on social media (clever!), is a Doctor of Pharmacy graduate from the Centro Escolar University. One of his earliest TikTok vids show that he's been on the platform since 2018 and as of writing, has around two million followers! He even got the blue check in December 2020

Lagra posts about a bunch of different things; he's a K-Pop fan, does dance covers, but most popular are the videos he makes while working at a pharmacy headed by his mom.

You can check out short clips of him succinctly explaining the hows and whys of vaccines, medicine, and typical pharmacy questions, sometimes answered through dance in that weirdly entertaining way TikToks just do. And then he also throws in super funny clips about pharmacy shenanigans just in case your brain cells need a break. We round up a few of the funniest—and most helpful—ones below:
