Quebec’s Ministry for Health and Social Services posted a tweet Thursday that mistakenly included a link to a video on Pornhub.

The tweet was reportedly live for about forty minutes before being deleted by the Quebec Health Ministry, which prompted an apology in a follow-up tweet by the Canadian public health officials behind the official government account, according to Mediaite. The agency intended to convey daily figures related to COVID-19 fatalities and reports.

“Due to a situation beyond our control, a link with inappropriate content was posted on our Twitter account. We are looking for the causes. We are sorry for the inconvenience,” the Ministry said, according to Mediate.

 

Coincidentally, Pornhub’s HQ is located in Montreal, Quebec, according to CTV News Montreal.

The Quebec Ministry of Health and Social Services Twitter account boasts just over 100,000 followers.
