The City of Baltimore was mocked over a public information campaign encouraging people to get vaccinated before they could socialize, with some comparing the promo to a domestic abuse PSA.
The ad shows a disgruntled looking woman being told by her controlling boyfriend, "Mimosa with the girls? You still aren't vaxxed, Debra!"
"Mimosas with the girls this weekend? It's a bad idea if you haven't been vaxxed," states the tweet accompanying the image from the Baltimore City Health Department.
Twitter users pointed out that the ad resembles a poster for a woman's refuge, portraying Debra's domestic situation with her boyfriend as if she is a victim of domestic abuse.
Others questioned why the city was targeting the sparse demographic of "the three rich white women who live in that city."
Others simply labeled the campaign "idiotic" or "weird."
Comment: A pretty apt comparison if one considers how the governments acted in lockstep to impose draconian COVID measures that have terrorized the masses for fourteen months now. RT

Battling what they consider lack of interest in vaccination in Baltimore, city health bureaucrats have decided to get "creative" with their assertive measures - nagging, shaming, and possibly even crossing a moral line.
[...]
Going for equal-opportunity nagging, another Baltimore ad featured a woman lecturing a man about how he can't go socialize with friends without getting the jab.
Other ads appealed to the city's African-American residents, as well as Spanish-speakers - who were told "no papers, no problem."
On Monday, the state of Maryland started offering its employees a $100 payment to encourage vaccination. Governor Larry Hogan announced that the government was "further encouraging state employees to get vaccinated to help keep themselves, their families, and their communities healthy and safe."
The program is projected to cost $5 million and will require participants to show certificates of vaccination to state government employees at the Human Resources Office - meaning one can't simply look like a state employee, one must actually be one.
As of May 1, about 2.75 million Marylanders - about 46% of the state's total population - have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, while 2.09 million, or 35%, were considered fully vaccinated.
