WASHINGTON — The Biden administration on Thursday morning announced an ambitious advertising campaign intended to encourage as many Americans as possible to be vaccinated against the coronavirus.
The campaign, with ads in English and Spanish that will air throughout April on network TV and cable channels nationwide, as well as online, comes as the administration is rapidly expanding access to coronavirus vaccines but skepticism about the vaccines also remains high.
Quite a lot has been happening:
NMDOT ad campaign focuses on distracted driving
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – The New Mexico Department of Transportation’s Traffic Safety Division announced the launch of a new ad campaign for spring 2021. The “JUST DRIVE” spots aim to bring awareness to distracted driving and its consequences.
The social media video is narrated by a child and the visuals are animated childlike drawings. The child describes the results of texting while driving. The spots will debut in April, which is Distracted Driving Awareness Month.
RNC rolls out ad campaign hitting Democrats over election reform | TheHill
The Republican National Committee (RNC) will launch a six-figure ad blitz early next week hammering Democrats' election reform legislation that the GOP is calling a "power grab."
The RNC is rolling out the ads in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and New Hampshire, all of which have Democratic-held Senate seats that are on the ballot in 2022. The ads will run on Facebook, Google and local and national news sites, and the RNC said the effort will be complemented by "every tool in its arsenal," including appearances by local surrogates on radio and television.
US launches major COVID vaccination ad campaign
The government is also spending millions to get the message out on news outlets catering to Blacks, Hispanics, Asian-Americans and Native Americans—communities hit disproportionately hard by the coronavirus.
After a slow start, the US vaccination campaign has gathered pace since late January and President Joe Biden has promised that 90 percent of America's adults will eligible for a vaccine by April 19.

Ad campaigns seek to counter COVID vaccine doubts among conservatives
WASHINGTON – The federal government and nonprofits are unveiling ad campaigns to counter vaccine hesitancy, emphasizing educational partnerships at the grassroots level.
"Conservatives are not a monolithic group," John Bridgeland, founder of the COVID Collaborative, told USA TODAY. "There is a large moveable middle of those who may get vaccinated if they haven't gotten it already."
At the same time, the Department of Health and Human Services announced its "We Can Do This" campaign Thursday, a federal effort partnering with dozens of local groups across the country to combat vaccine hesitancy.

The ads are, in brief, completely bonkers and xenophobic. The front group chose to tell Ohioans that petition collectors were sent by the Chinese government, and that petitions were attempts to "control Ohio's power." (In case it's not clear, that is patently false.)
