Today, the AJPM published the outcomes of our in-depth analysis on the impact of paid media in HHS's COVID-19 Public Education campaign. Our findings highlight the remarkable impact of the first year of the campaign which was responsible for administering 55.9 million doses of the vaccine. These efforts stopped over 2.5 million COVID cases, prevented 243k hospital visits and saved 51,675 lives. For every $1 spent on the campaign, it yielded $90 in societal benefit. This follows the announcement earlier this year that HealthCare.gov enrolled an historic 21.3 million people into marketplace health insurance coverage. There is no doubt that investments in advertising marketplace coverage played an important role in that success (in addition to great policy). As someone who has had the privilege to work on both of these programs, their success underscores how important this type of outreach is to the successful implementation of government programs - especially for low-income and minority communities. I'm immensely proud of the publication of this research and the team of people who worked on the program that made this possible. Special thanks to: Sidney Turner, Elissa Kranzler, Sarah Trigger, Aaron Kearsley, Joseph Luchman, Christopher Williams, Heather Dahlen, Jae-Eun Kim, Morgane Bennett, Tyler Nighbor, Trinidad Beleche, and Leah Hoffman, MPH for their work on the research. A forever thanks to Mark Weber, April Brubach, Janell Norris, Michael Murray, Kendall Oliphant, Robin Bachman, May Malik, Kia A., Monica Vines, Sarah Trigger, Elizabeth Petrun Sayers, Jessica Weinberg, Sheila Walsh, Georgeta Dragoiu, Zachary Dembner, Tericka Lambert, Erin Hemlin, Lakshmi Grama, Laura Gerhardt, Karina Jimenez-Donovan, Craig Stoltz, Lynn Sokler, Ronne Ostby, Elizabeth Goodman, Imani Greene, Sam Hagedorn for living in the trenches with me. To the dozens of people I omitted but who made the campaign possible, forgive me!

During this time of year when talented young people are entering the workforce after graduation - consider a career in the Federal goverment - the work is difficult and yes bureacratic at times but the impact of a team focused on common purpose can be powerful! As Josh said best a forever thanks to all who applied the best communications tools available and made these results possible in one of the most difficult times of our lives.
