Condoms in Schools: A Smart Move, But a Tough Sell

I. Synthesis                “The Department of Health (DOH) will no longer push through with its plan to distribute condoms in schools following the Department of Education’s (DepEd) decision to block the DOH initiative. The distribution of condoms will continue to take place in health centers now that the DepEd has made a decision.” ―Philippine Daily Inquirer

II. Pros and Cons                          The Department of Health (DOH) planned a program of distribution of condoms in schools. . The program aims to provide services to improve condom access. The DepEd assured to improve and develop sex education in the country.  In spite of that, the Department of Education (DepEd) disagreed which Briones said that they will follow the guidelines on reproductive health, including the requirements of the Constitution and the law and to improve the curriculum. However, the distribution of condoms will continue at health centers

III. Reflection (Insights)                 As a student we know that implementing this kind of program in our schools is not a good idea to stop HIV and STD’s, though it would but it must not have distributed in schools. It is like the DOH is more of promoting premarital sex than preventing HIVs and STDs. As a person and as a Filipino citizen, I think that it would be better if they distribute the condoms to places or communities that is over populated and needs to be controlled.

Secretary Paulyn Rosell Ubial delivered her acceptance speech of the top post in Health last July 4, 2016. Armed with a bombastic speech she started shouting “Hindi ako politiko. I rose from the ranks. Digong chose me because he wanted a career official with a good performance.” This became her usual opening statement in almost all her speeches. Much expectation from the health sector started to rise. Many thought having been appointed as Secretary, Sec Ubial will change her work attitude, stop playing computer games during meetings and office hours, manage affairs in the office and stop lying and claiming credit for many things in DOH which she does not have a role in. But she became even worse. She is not doing anything to achieve Phil/ Duterte Health Agenda. She is using her position only for political patronage to feed her personal ambition. aImmediately the next day, she flew to Iloilo bringing along DOH Health Promotion Staff with theinstructions to bring along as many media personnel as they could. Panic rose since there was confusion on who will pay the tickets and spend for their hotels and meals. Her first official trip outside Manila was to Iloilo on July 5. It was touted as a homecoming of sorts for Ubial who introduced herself as “THE real Ilongga.” What was behind this? Why did it have to be highlighted in this first official visit and meeting with Iloilo provincial officials? What and why was it so important for her to make this declaration? And what has that got to do with the delivery of basic health services under her leadership for the said province? Iloilo Governor Arthur Defensor and Provincial Administrator Dr. Raul Banias led local officials in welcoming the new Secretary. Immediately thereafter, talks before the Ilonggo public and media present heard Ubial boast of having been born in Iloilo. This, as compared to herpredecessor who is “just migrant of Iloilo and is a Bisaya from Leyte. Not a true Ilongga.” Secretary Ubial claims to be a descendant of a former Congressman coming from the clan of the Buenaflors. One fact that has since bolstered talks about her “secret” political ambitions. Among her announcements was that her watch at the Health Department is going to be “Aksyon agad,” and in fact, right there and then she assured the governor a check of P33M. She also laid down grand plans for Iloilo with media present reporting how Ubial “hinted” that she, as a true blooded Ilongga works and will work for the province.
