Viagra for Cuba? What is sildenafil and why is Morena including it in their humanitarian aid list

Morena is collecting humanitarian aid for Cuba, including food, supplies, and sildenafil, which has sparked social media reactions.

Following President Claudia Sheinbaum's announcement of a second humanitarian aid shipment to Cuba, the Morena party initiated a campaign to gather food, supplies, and medications for the island, which is facing an energy and economic crisis exacerbated by the US blockade. The initiative, dubbed 'Colecta de Solidaridad con Cuba,' has set up donation centers in 30 states and published a list of requested items including food, medications, personal hygiene products, lighting resources, and basic home tools to be delivered soon. Among the medications requested is sildenafil, commercially known as Viagra, which raised eyebrows and sparked discussions on social media due to its association with treating erectile dysfunction in adult men.
