I was just having a look on Reddit and saw this thread about why people are not tanned in Australia . The comments are an absolute example of a successful public health campaign and how effective they can be.

In my memory there was a shift to sun awareness in the late 70s and early 80s, and there was a catchy song. Then we had stickers given out at school and the phrase "slip, slop, slap" (slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen, slap on a hat) was ubiquitous. It was positive messaging and it worked.

If only we could get the public health organisations/institutes/departments to be as effective for respirator use.
