The CDC has created unintentionally funny health-themed greeting cards, such as:
- What have you been up to since your last HIV test? --- Let's go get tested again!
- Feel better from your surgery --- and walk around soon afterwards, so you don't get Deep Vein Thrombosis
- Don't just "Wait and See"! --- Just because a sore is painless and disappears doesn't mean that the disease is gone. Get tested for Syphilis today.
Is there any way to make a health-themed greeting card which does not seem preachy?
At least they had the good sense not to make "obesity awareness" greeting cards.

I think they improve if you picture them being sent by doctors or hospitals. Institutions tend to be earnest and preachy (I remember the wall posters being unusual/hilarious at the Mass. Dept of Health); in that light it's useful of the CDC to prepackage these.
those are funny!
