Raising HIV Awareness

12 November 2014

A statue in Hyde Park in Sydney, Australia, has been covered with a giant pink condom. The 60ft tall statue is now covered in pink to promote HIV awareness among gay men. The “I’m ON” campaign secured the right to cover the 157 year old heritage-listed monument for one week.

Packets of condoms have been scattered around the structure with the message “Test more + treat early + stay safe = ending HIV”.
