Short film to boost jab zeal
THE latest in a series of short films by the Northern Land Council and the Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance will star outback legend Constantina Bush.
The Get the Jab! series aims to educate people on why they should get the vaccine and to be aware of social media disinformation.
Ms Bush said the video had a serious message about online conspiracy theories about Covid-19.
“People should be really careful with information they see on Facebook, TikTok or other social media,” she said.
Ms Bush instead urged people to consult doctors and nurses at the clinic.
NLC chairman Samuel Bush-Blanasi said the video series was a crucial way in driving enthusiasm in Aboriginal communities for getting vaccinated.
“We know our mob listen to their countrymen and women better than to any politician in a suit,” Mr Bush-Blanasi said.
