A marketing plan

“ To reach members of these groups—which, with the exception of the pocketed communities, were largely spread throughout the country—the US government added a new, aggressive advertising campaign to its pro-vaccination efforts. This campaign provided targeted internet advertisements to individuals as they conducted web searches or visited anti-vaccination websites. If someone searched Google for “Corovax side effects,” for example, a sidebar advertisement appeared on the results page explaining the benefits of the vaccine. Likewise, if someone wished to view the Kalocivir vomiting video on YouTube, they would first have to watch either a montage of pictures illustrating the effects of SPARS or a clip of Paul Farmer’s explanation of Corovax’s benefits. This advertisement campaign required government officials to leverage relationships in the information technology industry, including the many companies involved with social media, but the impact was worth the effort. Vaccination rates eventually began increasing across all targeted demographics except the most recalcitrant anti-vaccine activists.”

“A marketing plan”

Reminds me of an old advertisement I saw online recently.

Shows a cheerful gal at the stove: “Now she can cook breakfast again when you prescribe new Mornidine.”

A brand of the drug Thalidomide. Used in the late 50’s to early 60’s to treat morning sickness during pregnancy. Banned in the 60’s due to it causing limb deformities and other problems in the babies.

I know it’s tough to live in reality, but the extracts you posted in posts 27 & 28 are from a work of FICTION. It’s no more true than the movie 2012 was true.

P.S. There’s not a monster living under your bed.
