MMGB: Babylon 'Don't ask the internet. Ask a real doctor'
It's an all-too familiar scenario: you Google a minor health symptom only to fall down an internet rabbit hole and become convinced you're stricken with a terminal disease.
 
Healthcare app Babylon’s first creative campaign plays on this phenomenon of "Cyberchondria", or hyperbolic responses to seeking medical advice online. The start-up is running outdoor, press and digital ads in London as the NHS prepares to trial the app as an alternative to non-emergency helpline 111. The ads were created by Max Maclean and Ran Stallard at Ogilvy & Mather London.
