The NWT government’s next wave of coronavirus advertising – don’t be a spreader, the territory warns you – is making its way across social media.
Short and simple videos feature voiceovers calling on residents to take the basic steps that will halt the virus: stay away from each other, avoid gatherings, and self-isolate if told to do so.
As of Wednesday, the NWT had one confirmed case of Covid-19. There had been 533 negative tests, while 209 people were in isolation awaiting their result.
Mike Westwick is the NWT government’s communications manager for its Covid-19 response.
