DOH chief wants to block porn sites to limit spread of HIV-AIDS

Secretary of the Department of Health, Paulyn Ubial, said she wants to block pornographic websites in the country as a measure to discourage promiscuous behavior in the youth and limit the spread of HIV-AIDS.

In an interview with The STAR, Ubial said that she is no longer pushing the distribution of condoms among senior high school students which is one of the measures considered to help prevent the spread of HIV-AIDS among the youth.

Instead, Ubial will just push for the government to undertake measures to make pornographic websites inaccessible in the country as she believes that pornography accessed on smartphones encourages promiscuous behavior in the youth.

“I will support anything that can curb the spread of HIV-AIDS,” Ubial said.

She is also considering the distribution of print materials that show actual photos of people with sexually transmitted diseases as a deterrent to sexual promiscuity among the youth.

The Philippine government has ordered local ISPs to ban access to porn sites in 2014 but was only felt last month when popular adult sites became inaccessible pursuant to the Republic Act 9775 or the Anti-Child Pornography Law. The Philippines also ranked 14th worldwide among the top countries that visit Pornhub in 2016.

    Use porn instead to educate people about safe sex. Talamak sa social media ang mga hayok sa sex kaya kahit tanggalin mo ang porn, marami pa rin silang makikita sa social media.

    This government is getting more clueless by the day. While they’re at it, why not ban cars and driving as well to stop deaths from road accidents?

    una mahirap mag block ng sites na yan, mapipilitan ang mga kabataan na gumamit na pamamraan na mas delikado lugar sa internet
    pangalawa ang kabataan pag tinamaan ng puberty, kahat wala pornographic sites ay patuloy pa din yan.
    pangatlo ang magaluang dapat alam ang mg anak kung nasaan wag hayaan ang gobyerno ang mag yaya sa mga kabataan

    how is HIV acquired from fapping? porn actually helps since fapping is the best natural contraception aside from abstaining: prevents pregnancies, no actual sex, no multiple sexual partners.

    maybe next thing they do is promote male and female castration to prevent ‘urges’…
