Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Chapters 7 and 8 in your course textbook.
A well-established fact is that many Americans and individuals throughout the world had varying opinions related to the COVID-19 vaccines. Another well-established fact is that minority communities received fewer vaccine vials, less education on the virus and vaccines, and ultimately fewer inoculations. Thus, increasing the level of education and inoculations in minority communities is critical and has been added to the Healthy People 2030: Browse ObjectivesLinks to an external sitehttps://health.gov/healthypeople/objectives-and-data/browse-objectives. initiative. Imagine the American Ad Council asked you to join a team to produce a public service announcement (PSA). This PSA would either help minority adults ages 19 to 50 who are aware of the vaccine but refuse to be inoculated or would increase minority community education on the severity of the COVID-19 virus. It would also reflect the vaccine’s important role in protecting the community. Using the stages of the TMC, design a health promotion message.
