QUEBEC’S Health Ministry accidentally tweeted a link that was supposed to send users to the Canadian province’s Covid-19 portal, but instead went to a page featuring foot fetishes on adult video site Pornhub.

It quickly deleted the post after the mix-up was discovered.

“Due to a situation beyond our control, a link with inappropriate content was posted on our Twitter account,” it said in an email, adding that it is investigating the issue.

The Health Ministry has more than 100,000 Twitter followers.

The incident, which did not go unnoticed by social media users, provoked a range of reactions from amusement and annoyance to mockery.

Pornhub, one of the most-trafficked websites in the world, is based in Montreal and owned by MindGeek. – AFP, April 15, 2022.
