COVID-19 Vaccine Boosters Communications Toolkit

While COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths continue to decline in Ohio and nationally, new variants in the future remain likely. It is important that time is taken to encourage all eligible Ohioans in all age groups who haven’t already gotten a COVID-19 vaccine booster shot to get one, especially Ohioans age 50 and over who are at greatest risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death.

Providers can offer invaluable assistance in increasing COVID-19 vaccinations and saving lives.

People are more likely to get a booster shot if someone they personally know and trust encourages them to do so, answers any questions they may have, and tells them where to get a shot. We are asking you to engage your members/stakeholders in this effort by urging them to use the attached communications toolkit to encourage their patients/clients/stakeholders to get a COVID-19 booster shot.

Attached is a toolkit to promote the importance of booster doses using social media channels with sample text and graphics, or on websites or in publications.
