Case Scenario
There has been a recent multi-neighborhood foodborne outbreak involving E. coli (Escherichia coli) in Sentinel City®. Sixty elementary school-age children were out sick this week. Several adults and children from all four neighborhoods have been evaluated in local clinics and the emergency room with complaints of abdominal pain, sudden severe diarrhea, nausea, and fatigue. What form of formal mass communication would be most effective for educating the public about the causes, symptoms, and prevention of E. coli in the city? Use government websites or scholarly literature to support your rationale for the mass communication method you select. In 150 words or less, develop a newspaper script, poster, billboard appropriate, or social media for adults and teens and one specifically for elementary school-age children. How would you communicate the same information informally? When preparing information to share with the community, consider the demographics of each neighborhood and health literacy.
