A startling reality: most cases of abuse occur between ages 5 and 8. 😩

S*x education is not about teaching kids to have s*x—
it’s about empowering them to:
• Recognize and report abuse
• Exercise their right to say no
• Understand body autonomy
• Protect themselves from STIs

I had the privilege of attending a workshop on age- and culturally-appropriate s*x education, and it truly opened my eyes. I learned so much from this experience!

It’s also timely that the Filipino version of a children’s book explaining HIV has just been released. With these resources and lessons, I feel even more ready to share what I’ve learned with kids and adolescents! We never had s*x ed. But our kids will! This time, we learn with them!

What is Monkeypox?

Monkeypox is a viral infection that can spread from animals to humans, and from person to person. It’s similar to smallpox but usually milder.

⸻

🦠How Do You Get It?
• Close contact with someone who has monkeypox (e.g. touching skin rashes, body fluids, or items they used like bedding or clothing)
• Contact with infected animals (like rodents or monkeys)
• Respiratory droplets (face-to-face, prolonged contact)

⸻

⚠️ Signs and Symptoms
• Fever
• Headache and body aches
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Rash (starts as flat spots, turns into blisters, then scabs over)
• Fatigue

Symptoms usually appear 5 to 21 days after exposure.

⸻

Is It Dangerous?

Monkeypox is usually mild and people recover in 2–4 weeks.
But it can be serious for children, pregnant women, or people with weak immune systems.

⸻

💊 Can It Be Treated?
• Most people get better on their own
• Medicines like antivirals may be given in severe cases
• Vaccines used for smallpox may also help protect against monkeypox

⸻

✅ What Should You Do?
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick or have unexplained rashes
• Wash hands often
• Don’t touch wild animals or their meat
• If you have symptoms, consult a doctor immediately (never google)
• Isolate if you suspect you’re infected to avoid spreading it
