Public Health Communications Needs A Makeover: Power of AI & Influencers
Public health says "don't drink and drive." Bud Light says "don't let the party stop—have a designated driver". One feels like a lecture, the other made millions take notice. That communication gap is why public health messaging still misses the mark despite saving millions of lives.
In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, Dr. Brian Castrucci explains how AI platforms and influencer partnerships could go a long way in helping public health step out of the shadows. From the De Beaumont Foundation's toolkit to communicate with policymakers to the VeriSci AI platform that puts sophisticated messaging in practitioners' hands, Brian shows why public health must meet people where they are: on social media, not government webpages. The field that gave Americans decades of extra life now faces a choice—adapt or disappear.
