During last monthโs World AIDS day, some of the countryโs most known personalities came together to support the Protection and Preparedness Education (PPE) campaign of Durex, which is anchored on the Always Come Prepared message. ย Stressing the point that, โno one is invulnerable to catching HIV so always being prepared in encounters is a must,โ the campaign is the brandโs way of advocating for HIV awareness and health safety during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through Durexโs World AIDS Day Campaign, which encourages everyone to join in on the fight against HIV/AIDS, celebrities and HIV advocates including TonyToni, Slick Rick, Sam YG, Ian Pangilinan, Paolo Pangilinan, Elijah Canlas, Kokoy De Santos, Macoy Dubs, Marc Teng, Freak & Jerck, Rica Cruz, Jabar Esmael, MA Buendia, and others all shared social media posts that showed them donning Durex statement face masks that carry such catchy but timely messages such as โSafety is Sexy,โ โDonโt Blow It,โ โSuit Up Before Hook Upโ, โAlways Come Preparedโ and more!
โEven in the face of the pandemic, the brand strongly believes that continuing to raise awareness on HIV should not stop. This is why we launched the Protection and Preparedness Education (PPE) campaign,โ says Durex Philippines. โWeโre extremely pleased that a number of celebrities and influencers have all agreed to take part in this endeavor, which includes our fun but sensible Mask Initiative, by helping spread the word through their respective social media accounts.โ
To help boost their efforts to combat HIV/AIDS amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and promote health safety, Durex also recently donated personal protective equipment (PPEs)โa total of 1000 face masks, 1000 face shields, and 7000 boxes of Durex Condoms eachโto local HIV-advocate groups LoveYourself, The Red Whistle, and the PLHIV Response Center.
