The reasons are the same. We've gone as far as to propagate the info about AIDS and prevetion, by using profilactics, by childish songs, which are not particularily good but have catchy frases.

The propaganda pro-prevention in here has taken the shape of the propaganda against drugs, they don't really inform of the consequences or causes of AIDS, and how to prevent them, they just try to force you into using them by subliminal language (i.e. repeat the frase so much that you'll suddenly remember to grab a "rubber"). Totally inneffective if you consider that, though everyone knows of what the propaganda is talking about, the nickname used for "rubber" in it has nothing to do with the name we usually give it, so instantaneous recognition is not posible.

However some might have a point saying that the method is correct. The propaganda is mostly directed at people with no education at all, so the government, as usual, think that a certain part of the subdits are essentialy stupid and can be ordered to do something like you'll do with children.
