A woman gasping for breath in a hospital bed will appear on Sydneysiders’ screens from Sunday in a confronting new federal government advertising campaign designed to tell people to stay home.
The ad, evocative of the 1980s “grim reaper” AIDS campaign in its bluntness, was filmed towards the end of last year but the government decided not to run it because the outbreaks since then have not been severe enough to justify it.
Sydneysiders urged to bring forward their second dose of AstraZeneca jab
Chief Medical Officer Kerry Chant announced the new advice on Sunday
Dr Chant asked residents to get their second dose six weeks after their first
Previous health advice recommended the jabs be given twelve weeks apart
The advice allows for a shorter period if there is risk of Covid-19 exposure
