Do we need to change the way we think about health campaigns in the era of social media? 🤔 We explored this question in a recent paper @snurb_dot_info@emvdn@MarcFennell@SandroDemaio@syd_health @KLMacKay @lil_3c @DrBFreeman
Summary here: https://t.co/U9dzxpIjkM
New paper! https://t.co/glGh5SvFLf We (@lil_3c @DrBFreeman @KLMacKay @billbellew and others not foolish enough to be on here) propose a model for planning and measuring the impact of social media campaigns in health. FYI @syd_health@SethNoar@snurb_dot_info
If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would try to figure out what's wrong.
When humans do it we put them on cover of Forbes.
We must ban all direct sales of vaping products, this paper argues, to help Australia return to the ’front of the pack’ on #TobaccoControl: https://t.co/Im086jQmak

#ViralBytes entry from @DanielSurkalim
This ‘byte’ highlights the problems associated with loneliness as a health problem, but also surrounding the current research landscape on the topic, making the case for why greater attention is needed in this field.
For anyone wondering what my PhD research is about - I made a video. A massive thanks to a great team of researchers who help with this work @AdrianBauman@louisa_peralta PH Tony Okely & Chris Lonsdale
#TLDR: anti-smoking campaigns report lots and lots of different digital metrics (impressions, exposures, engagements, etc), but we need to use a few guiding principles for choosing which metrics to report, and also start reporting them in terms of a few broad categories
Celebrating @AdrianBauman@syd_health today and his immense contribution to #publichealth - it's been a privilege working with him & being one of his 80+ (!) #PhD students! A real testament of his dedication to teaching and sharing his expertise! 👏👏👏
Excited to share, as my first of many public tweets(!), our @TC_BMJ paper showing the potential of a non-regulatory intervention, in addition to strong tobacco licensing, to encourage tobacco retailers to end sales. Read it now👇
