 Abstinence-only sex education in Uganda has reportedly distributed the misinformation that there are tiny pores in condoms that allow the HIV virus to pass through, therefore deeming them unsafe to use against infection.It has also been disseminated that condoms are not effective birth control and the chance of getting pregnant is very high.This information that is easily disproven in the Global North, is difficult to combat in Uganda when it comes from political, spiritual and community leaders.
