Aiming to remind Queenslanders of the seriousness of respiratory viruses.
Queensland Health has launched a new campaign for Influenza, RSV vaccinations and Covid boosters.
The campaign was created in conjunction with the production company IPER and the internal creative team at Queensland Health over a condensed two-day shoot.
A diverse cast of ten Queenslanders shared their real-life experiences with the viruses and the consequences of not being vaccinated against them.
The campaign aims to remind Queenslanders of the seriousness of respiratory viruses, with the tagline ‘Don’t be complacent.’
IPER director Rhys Ellis said people often hear on the news about the severity of these viruses.
"But we wanted to show how they personally affect people in their daily lives," said Ellis.
By amplifying voices from Indigenous people, children, caregivers and the immunocompromised, the campaign demonstrates the varied effects of these viruses on individuals.
These narratives emphasise that vaccination and continued hygiene practices, such as handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes, and staying home when unwell, safeguard not only personal health but also the well-being of those around us.
The campaign debuts today across various platforms, including video-on-demand, outdoor billboards, digital, and social media.
