What is the problem you found?

How might we increase the uptake of COVID-19 vaccinations in Australia?

Customer / Problem

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on our day to day lives. During lockdown people are unable to visit their families and businesses are closing.

Australians are hesitant about the vaccine due to a lack of information. There are a lot of theories and myths about the vaccine online.

What Is Your Solution?

Our idea is a website that supports people and teaches them about the Covid-19 vaccine. With easy and direct videos about each vaccine from medical professionals, quizzes that inform the user about what vaccine type you should get based on your health conditions, experiences from people who have had Covid-19 and rewards from businesses for those who are vaccinated.

Businesses have been struggling throughout lockdown and this will help them to have an economic comeback. The website will be accessible through a QR code that will be placed next to check in sites when out and about.
