European Antibiotic Awareness Day scarf

image toolkit material

The use of a scarf as a supporting visual, in a shape suggesting one of the commonly known disease awareness ribbons (e.g. red ribbon against HIV/AIDS), is designed to symbolise a wider campaign and the idea of bringing everyone together around a cause. Many awareness campaigns use coloured ribbons and in this sense, the use of a blue scarf for the European Antibiotic Awareness Day serves a similar purpose, while also symbolising the idea of taking care of oneself through minor illness.
