WhiteHouse.gov - Flu Prevention PSA Contest: HHS Needs You ($2500 award)

White House ^ | 7 /9/09 | Katie Stanton

[Jean S]

Today, as the Administration holds a day-long summit on H1N1, we're excited to announce that HHS is launching a new PSA campaign contest to encourage more Americans to get involved in the nation's flu preparedness efforts by making a 15, 30 or 60 second video Public Service Announcement (PSA). The goal of the contest is to tap into the nation's creativity to help educate Americans about how to plan for and prevent the spread of the flu and the H1N1 virus.

 

The videos can be funny, cute, dramatic, but most of all, they should help make a positive impact. HHS is organizing an expert panel to evaluate submissions and will present the best PSAs to the public so everyone can vote on their favorite submission. The winning PSA will receive $2,500 in cash and will appear on national television. To learn more about the contest details, as well as our larger effort to plan and prepare for the flu season, please go to www.flu.gov.  To take a crack at the PSA contest, just post a response to Secretary Sebelius' video below, but skim over the rules first.

My idea for a commercial: Obama caused H1N1. As he gains power it gains power, and vice versa. Only you can fight Obamaflu!

You can’t make this stuff up people.

[taxtruth]

Obama is the flu virus in America.

Since the primary source in the US seems to be unscreened illegal immigrants, perhaps a PSA calling for the identification and roundup of illegals would be in order.

I’m not planning to enter the contest, so anyone who wants to can help themselves to this idea.

Why not a million dollars? They’re just going to print the prize money anyway.

In Mexico our flu epidemic arrived after the Obama visit. One of the people he shook hands with died the next day. We think he brought it... But you know, I’m afraid of this ‘falling off the wagon’, stuff, that we’re going to be really having so many FRONTS to battle, that the whole thing is going to blow up, if it hasn’t already.

[kromike]

Okay, I'm confused. So on one hand, he wants you to keep from getting sick. But with ObamaCare, he wants you to die as quickly as possible.

Make up your mind, Punk.

Hitler would be proud of his incarnate..

The spot could go something like this — O’dumbo walks out to address the m’asses and says;

“Don’t you understand — Were trying to create a crisis here...Would you people cooperate!”

Knock over the TOTUS and hold breath and stomp feet...Hey, I’d watch that...

Please take time to watch and pass along to friends.
