The flier straddling this post is one of the ads for NYC's Health Department condom initiative. It's been a while since I last saw this poster, but an article on Jezebel (and subsequent commentators) led me back to the DOH's campaign. Basically, the ads are not only visually stimulating, their flashiness and simple yet bold message are supposed to remind us all to "get some" rubbers the next time we... get some.
Of course, as another bit of marketing genius, they also released a line of "NYC condoms" stamped with the eponymous logo featured on the flier. According to the Health Department's condom page, the condom distribution initiative jumped off, appropriately enough, on February 14th of this year. Since then, the city has been sticking them everywhere and anywhere they can think of: dive bars, restaurants, movie theaters, hotels, etc. Pretty much anywhere that two people can meet up and possibly hook up once they've finished their business, the condoms have been spotted.
