John the Baptist was talking to the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Starting in Matthew 3:7,

7But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. 9And do not think you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 10The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.

What did John the Baptist say to the Pharisees and Sadducees?

In Luke 3:7-10, John called the multitude who came to him a generation of vipers who were fleeing the wrath to come: "Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?" In this Gospel, John did not say anything to the Pharisees and Sadducees.In Matthew 3:7-9, John is reported to say this to the Pharisees and Sadducees, rather than to the multitude: "But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham."

How do you raise awareness of health issues?

There are multiple ways to raise awareness of health issues. You could set up a bake sale, go door to door (ie unicef which aids a widely known children's hospital), and even raise awareness at a school. At my high school, we had an event titled "Mini-thon" which included a series of obstacles and events for the audience while being able to raise awareness as well as money for children's cancer; not only did this organized event help raise awareness of cancer, currently one of the most leading causes of death, but it also raised money and helped aid children currently struggling with this fatal illness.
