anecdotally can someone say: now wait just a minute, ma'am, i sent this video to my uncle and he never liked mowing in the first place so this video was all he needed
sure
great. share a youtube link, change the world
giving someone a reason, who wanted to anyway, hardly qualifies as behavior change
an example of behavior change: someone fervently anti-masking, anti-vaccine, coming around to feeling ok about it and even good about it, no decisional regrets, didnt feel pressured, simply feels more educated, safer, and grounded
that is behavior change in public health
that means the messaging, the public comms, were successful
tell me how many people there are who can say that re: covid
from the start the aerosol thing was a disaster. shouldve said: airborne
i get not wanting to start a mass panic but aerosol was too complicated
airborne with poor range
airborne with falloff
wouldve been worth trying
public health behavior change is not brainwashing or propaganda
it is realizing there isnt a monster under the bed and there is a nightlight available to use.
