Radio Public Service Announcements
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends vaccinations from birth through adulthood to provide a lifetime of immunity, yet most adults are not vaccinated as recommended. This leaves them needlessly vulnerable to illness and the potential of spreading disease to others who may suffer even more severe consequences from infections, like young children and elderly parents.
It is important for your listeners to understand the importance of adult vaccination. We hope you will help us by airing the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases’ (NFID) new public service campaign on adult vaccination. PSAs feature real people telling their story about the potentially devastating consequences of vaccine-preventable diseases and the importance of adult vaccination.
We hope you will air the PSAs beginning now and as often as your programming permits—there is no “kill date.”
