Australian students will be able to get free condoms for SMS

An interesting campaign “TXT 4 Free Condomz” was initiated by Australian public organizations for the upcoming youth festivities called “Schoolie”, to motivate safe sex between students. Schoolies are month-lasting 12th grade graduate festivals, during which venereal diseases / unwanted pregnancies usually increase dramatically on the mainland.

The essence of the “sexual campaign” is utterly simple: taking into account the “momentary” desires of some students and the pathological reluctance and misunderstanding of the need to protect themselves, Marie Stopes International health service anonymously delivers 2 condoms in cardboard packaging at any address specified in the SMS message to the special number. According to experts, many, even not wanting to put themselves at risk, still do it because of the embarrassment of the seller at the pharmacy and the cost of the contraceptive.
