Spreading the truth....

Oh the hysteria!

These H1N1 posters were subtly placed around Ottawa’s Byward Market a few days ago and hopefully some of you were lucky enough to read them (and snag one) before the rain got to them. The artist’s message is quite clear: stay far far away from this vaccine!!

Each poster (4 in total) combines solid graphic design with a different message about the “truth” behind the H1N1 vaccinination.

Word has it, high quality versions will be made available for anyone to download, print, and paste as they please! Talk about going “viral”.
