Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is using Marvel’s “Avengers” to promote habits that prevent the spread of diseases.

KCDC announced Sunday that it has distributed a public service advertisement video titled “Dreaming of Being a Superhero,” which features Marvel characters including Iron Man, The Hulk and Thor.

The video, shared on KCDC’s social media channels, shows how anyone can be a hero who protects one’s family by washing one’s hands with soap, and coughing or sneezing into one’s sleeve instead of hands.
