Swine Flu Advert

A new public health campaign has been launched telling the public how they can help stop swine flu spreading.

The Catch it, Bin It, Kill it! ad is appearing in print, television and radio and aims to target everyone in the UK.

In the television advert, a man travelling in a lift sneezes and the germs quickly spread to an old couple and a child.

NHS Direct has released new figures on the number of people visiting its website to find out more about swine flu.
A spokesman said more than 63,000 people visited NHS Direct on Tuesday compared with around 39,000 on Tuesday last week

Stockpiles of anti-viral drugs, currently enough to cover 33 million people in the UK, are being increased to provide for 50 million people.

A Department of Health spokeswoman said: "The main message is that it is business as usual.
"The advice from WHO said that countries should activate their own plans and that is something that we have already done.
"It is important to emphasise that we are still not in the pandemic stage."

But when you touch the tap to wash your hands, wouldn't that spread it on to the next person as well?

Yehh good pointt!

[tailsdude828]

I have no idea why I haven't seen this style of the advert! I have seen it when that man snezzes every where! I do think the media are making it bigger than what it is, there is now signs for it up at my school about washing your hands and stuff, but wouldn't you do that anyway you shouldn't need a sign to help you do that!!

I think this video is more efficient because it is funnier and in my opinion people prefer when it's funny.

I think children can understand the message of ad.

The slogan is easier to remember and understand. X.C.

[3DEjjr]

I think this ad is the more efficient because it shows how it's easy to spread viruses especelly flu viruses.

It shows 2 how it's important to be vaccinate.ADV

[3DEjjr]

In my opinion, this advert is interresting 'cause it deals with a serious problem and adapts it with a little bit of humour.The slogan is written in very big letters so its keeps its serious.

So this video is twice more efficient .
