back in the day
here in Nigeria

.. in the 1970s
.. in the 1980s

and

at a guess
before that time period
e.g
.. in the 1950s
.. in the 1960s

much emphasis
was placed on

HYGIENE
PERSONAL HYGIENE
GENERAL HYGIENE
PUBLIC HYGIENE

and
if my memory
serves correctly

ELEMENTARY HYGIENE
was taught
as
an independent subject
like
ENGLISH
ARITHMETIC i.e MATHEMATICS
in

Primary Schools
in Nigeria.


United Kingdom idioms like

HEALTH IS WEALTH

CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS

ETC

were taught to pupils in
Primary Schools
and
Secondary Schools

and

there was

MUCH ADO

about

■■ HEALTH
■■ GOOD HEALTH
■■ HYGIENIC BEHAVIOUR
■■ HYGIENIC BEST PRACTICE




i guess
Nigeria
i.e
the HEALTH SECTOR
of and in Nigeria
the EDUCATION SECTOR
of and in Nigeria
the RESIDENTS AND CITIZENS
of Nigeria

has/have

maintained this rigorous discipline
especially
in the face of the reality
of illnesses
e.g
CHOLERA, ETC
that
could ravage the country
if adequate hygiene is not maintained.



so it comes as a

WORRISOME SHOCK

to see on the internet

images, imagery and videos

( .. not once )
( .. not twice )

on several occasions

showcasing

activity
activities

that seem to suggest
that

the producer(s)
of
such

images, imagery and videos
are

ignorant imbeciles

as far as
HYGIENE
IS CONCERNED

as far as
GOOD HEALTH
IS CONCERNED

as far as
THE REALITY
THAT
ILLNESSES CAN BE TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE FAECO-ORAL ROUTE
IS CONCERNED

as far as
THE REALITY
THAT
ILLNESSES CAN BE TRANSMITTED THROUGH ANAL SEX WITHOUT THE USE OF CONDOMS
IS CONCERNED




and

a thought crosses the mind
that

perhaps
individual countries around the world
should

put in place
and
enforce

very strictly

LAWS

that ENSURE that :

(1) any creator or producer
creating or producing
images and imagery
showcasing
ACTIVITY THAT COULD LEAD TO FAECO-ORAL TRANSMISSION OF INFECTION
DIRECTLY OR POTENTIALLY

AND/OR

ACTIVITY THAT COULD LEAD TO THE TRANSMISSION OF INFECTIONS VIA ANAL SEX WITHOUT THE USE OF CONDOMS


should

demonstrate that

they have

a sound basic education
a good basic education

from which they have

acquired
functional knowledge of elementary hygiene

and

also acquired
a thorough understanding of the role that
poor hygienic behaviour
plays
in the spread and transmission of illnesses.


(2) perhaps through
the

agency,
assistance and
involvement

of

the WORLD HEALTH ORGANISATION ( WHO )

and

any other SIMILAR BODIES
RECOGNISED INTERNATIONALLY
as being
of PREMIUM STANDING REGARDING HEALTH DELIVERY

that

the images or videos are vetted
by

a HEALTH PROFESSIONAL
RECOGNISED BY THE ORIGINATING COUNTRY OF THE VIDEO
i.e
BY THE COUNTRY IN WHICH THE VIDEO IS PRODUCED

AS

A
QUALIFIED AND ACCREDITED
HEALTH AND WELLNESS MANAGEMENT PRACTIONER
OF GOOD PROFESSIONAL STANDING

e.g

a Medical Doctor
a Pharmacist
a Nurse
a Medical Laboratory Scientist
a Pathologist
a Clinical Pathologist
a Microbiologist
a Medical Microbiologist
a Clinical Microbiologist
a Biochemist
a Medical Biochemist
a Clinical Biochemist
a Clinical Chemist
a Virologist
a Bacteriologist
a Parasitologist
an Epidemiologist
Etc

as :

(i) NOT ENCOURAGING
ACTIVITY
THAT
COULD BE
CAPABLE
DIRECTLY OR POTENTIALLY
OF LEADING TO
A SPREAD OF INFECTION(S)
AND/OR
A TRANSMISSION OF INFECTION(S)
VIA
THE FAECO-ORAL ROUTE AND/OR VIA ANAL SEX WITHOUT THE USE OF CONDOMS


when assayed from

a MEDICAL POINT OF VIEW
a PHARMACEUTICAL POINT OF VIEW
a HEALTH SCIENCES POINT OF VIEW
a BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES POINT OF VIEW
a SCIENCE POINT OF VIEW


(ii) NOT ENCOURAGING
ACTIVITY
THAT
COULD BE
CAPABLE
DIRECTLY OR POTENTIALLY
OF LEADING TO
A SPREAD OF ILLNESSES
AND/OR
A TRANSMISSION OF ILLNESSES
VIA
THE FAECO-ORAL ROUTE AND/OR VIA ANAL SEX WITHOUT THE USE OF CONDOMS

when assayed from

a MEDICAL POINT OF VIEW
a PHARMACEUTICAL POINT OF VIEW
a HEALTH SCIENCES POINT OF VIEW
a BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES POINT OF VIEW
a SCIENCE POINT OF VIEW




for the purposes of

googles

in a sizeable number of the vast plethora of adult videos

available free on the internet

and

easily accessible by young persons
under the age of 18 years
and
thus by
whole loads of impressionable minors around the world


and

thereupon googles


ILLNESSES LINKABLE TO FAECES AND UNHYGIENIC SEX

[ INSERT SCREEN-SHOTS BELOW ]





ILLNESSES LINKED TO FAECES AND UNHYGIENIC SEX

it would seem
to be
a valid perception
that

in many countries
around the world

respectable
Health and Wellness Management entities

such as
.. in their own respective countries ..
the equivalent(s)
and
the would-be equivalent(s)
of

the Nigeria Medical Association
the Nigeria Federal Ministry of Health
the Ministries of Health in the (36) States of Nigeria

the Nigeria Federal Minister for Health
the State Commissioners for Health in the (36) States of Nigeria

the Nigeria Centre for Diseases Control

the Nigeria Dental and Medical Council


do not concern themselves with
and
do not involve themselves with

the regulation

.. from a Health of the/their Citizenry point of view ..

of
the unhygienic content of adult videos
produced in their country, if any.


it may be
a difficult task for them to
find a way to regulate
the unhygienic content of adult videos
produced in another country
and posted on the internet


however

in view of the fact
that
unhygienic activity
can lead to

the transmission and spread of illnesses


which is a
POTENTIAL LAND MINE
health wise
for any country


there may be merit
in such respectable entities
adopting a regulatory approach
to content
that could lead to the transmission and spread of illnesses
that is/are produced or created by
producers and creators in their own individual countries, if any.



it may be possible that
generally
people consider the viewing of adult videos
to be
in the area
of

voyeurism
individual voyeurism

individual privacy

individual personal idiosyncrasies

and thus
respectable
Health & Wellness Management entities
do not concern themselves

with the content of adult videos.


however,
in view of

the possibility
and
the probability

that

such unhygienic activity

if copied and practised by

their general citizenry

could lead to

the transmission and spread of illnesses


it may be a good idea for
individual countries to
ENACT LAWS
THAT EMPOWER
THEIR HEALTH AND WELLNESS MANAGEMENT ENTITIES

to regulate

and

WHERE NECESSARY SANCTION

producers and creators
in their own individual countries
if any,

that produce or create

content with i.e containing unhygienic activity
