Catholic not-for-profit hospitals in Sydney are embarking on a new advertising campaign – Get Back to the Life You Love – to promote the benefits of taking up the Covid-19 vaccine.
Aimed at anyone who is eligible to be vaccinated, the month-long advertising campaign urges the community to act now and book in for a vaccination.
Catholic Health Australia (CHA) Director of Health Policy, James Kemp says the campaign, which has been endorsed by St Vincent’s Health Sydney, St John of God Health Care and Calvary Healthcare, aims to give the community a nudge and to “remind people what’s missing from their lives” because of the restrictions they face during lockdown.
“We want to remind people [about] those human interactions that do so much to offset the stresses of dealing with this pandemic,” says Mr Kemp.
“Vaccination is the pathway back to some sense of normality in our lives, and if our sector can play a role in getting those vaccination rates up then that is a good thing.”
Mr Kemp says that with the vaccine supply growing daily, and more places to get vaccinated coming on stream, now is the time to get people to book a vaccination date.
“We owe it to our family, friends and the wider community to get vaccinated without delay,” says Mr Kemp.
