The format that I would choose to create an advertisement for preventing young adults from spreading the virus is social media messaging. I believe that is an effective tool to accomplish this goal because most young people use social media platforms nowadays. The following is an example of a social media post that would advertise and support the purpose of preventing young adults from not following the pandemic safety precautions.
“Nothing will happen, and even if I get sick, I will get better in no time.” The media has blown this thing way out of proportion, and I am not going to participate in the conspiracy by missing out on spending time with my best friends. ”You may have a strong opinion on the pandemic and its impact or simply not take it seriously, but one thing is for sure: you probably know someone whose family has suffered from it. Numerous sources show how rapidly the virus can spread, even if the infected person seems healthy and does not demonstrate any symptoms of the disease.
Our careless attitudes can cause serious consequences. Think about being responsible for spreading the disease to some of your elderly relatives and putting their lives at risk without even realizing that you are infected. You would probably regret not following a simple recommendation to wear a mask and avoid crowded places, which, as studies have shown, really lowers the risks of contracting the virus. So, make a choice today; small things are what make a huge difference.
Such a post may have the desired effect on young adults because it incorporates several important factors from the third unit. First, it provides links to some reliable sources, which increases the author’s credibility and the likelihood of readers following the recommendations. In addition, the post uses some aspects of operant conditioning by describing the negative consequences that may follow when people disregard Coronavirus-related safety precautions.
