DepEd Denies Making Erroneous Flyer on HIV/AIDS

Flyers showing a homophobic and also gramatically incorrect message on HIV/AIDS prevention that carried emblems of the Dept. of Education, were not apparently from the said government unit.

The Dept. of Education released a statement via Facebook denying the flyer that said “no to sexual intercourse to (sic) homosexual.”

The Commission on Population also denied producing the flyers in another Facebook post.

Though it is comforting that both government sectors wrote pro-LGBT statements, it’s unnerving to think that someone had the money, means, and time to produce infuriating propaganda. Citizens expressed their disgust at the homophobic message and the skewed view on HIV/AIDS.

Whoever this person or group may be, we hope they know they are the ones who carry the real disease dragging us down.
