CDC Streaming Health: Influenza Videos

 

 


# 6294

 

The CDC, along with other government agencies, increasingly are using social media to inform and educate the public. In addition to their traditional web presence, we are seeing agencies use twitter chats and updates, stream live webinars and press conferences, and many of these agencies maintain Youtube Channels with updated selections of videos.


As an example, the CDC’s Streaming Health video channel features 300 videos, on a wide variety of health topics. 

 

Over the past week, they have uploaded 7 videos on influenza, which run anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes in length.
