NIVW Events/Activities
NIVW Blog-a-thon! : December 4-10
During NIVW, we are encouraging partners to write a post on their blog on the importance of flu vaccination. CDC will be kicking off the Blog-a-thon on Monday, December 5 with a post on Public Health Matters before passing the torch to other partners spreading the message on flu vaccination. Look for other participating blogs throughout the week and share your own post on social media using the hashtag #NIVW2016 and #fightflu. For those interested in being a part of the Blog-a-thon, a badge will be available to include with your post to show your participation in the event. Help us spread the word that it is not too late to get a flu vaccine this season! For more information about the Blog-a-thon, contact FluInbox@cdc.gov.

![NIVW Hashtag Promo](https://www.cdc.gov/flu/images/nivw/nivw-hashtag-promo.png)
CDC will sponsor a hashtag challenge to spread awareness about the upcoming flu season and to remind the public that it is not too late to get a flu vaccine. Working with Hashtag Roundup and National Lampoon, CDC will toss out a hashtag on December 7 at 11am ET. Choose a movie, replace one of the words in the movie title with the word "flu," and tweet your movie title with the challenge hashtag. Also, include a message about the importance of flu vaccination in your tweet or as a follow up tweet.
- Example: Close Encounters of the Flu Kind. Avoid your own close encounter with flu this season. Get a flu vaccine! (insert movie hashtag)*
*@CDCFlu will reveal the movie hashtag on December 7 at 11 am ET
Our goal is to have flu facts and information popping up within the hashtag feed, providing a learning opportunity for those playing along.
