Facebook today announces that it is working with the Ministry of Information to launch new COVID-19 Facebook profile frames and Instagram GIPHY stickers.
The new frames will let you share your support for COVID-19 vaccines, and see that others you respect and care about are doing the same. The profile frames and stickers will say “Let’s Get Vaccinated” or “I Got My COVID-19 Vaccine”.
Research shows that social norms can have a major impact on people’s attitudes and behaviours when it comes to their health. We know people are more likely to get a vaccine when they see someone they trust doing it.
By working closely with national and global health authorities and using our scale to reach people quickly, we’re doing our part to help people get credible information, get vaccinated and encourage others to do the same so we can come back together safely.
“We’re promoting these COVID-19 profile frames and GIFs to all Ghanaian Facebook and Instagram users to help boost vaccine confidence,” said Adaora Ikenze, Facebook’s Head of Public Policy for Anglophone West Africa.
“As COVID-19 vaccines become available to more and more people across Ghana, the new frames and GIPHY stickers can help you to demonstrate your support for the vaccines among your friends and family.”
