The Belo Medical Group apologized for its recent publication after the network was drawn.

“We apologize about our recent Pandemic Effect film. Thank you for being gracious in letting us know your thoughts about it,” - stated the Belo Medical Group in a statement.

“We hear you. You helped us see what we failed to see, which is that the film is insensitive and upsetting. Because of this, we have taken the ad down,” it added as it vowed to learn from this experience, “and to bring our learnings into the future.”

A lady with black bags under their eyes, face, body hair, acne, and obesity graded while she was watching news of the COVID-19 pandemic in her "Pandemic Effect."

"Tough time demands good measures" Belo said at the end of the commercial.

Nina Ellaine Dizon-Cabrera has taken her announcement concerns over Twitter.

Cabrera told Belo: "This epidemic is not, Dra. It is the standards of beauty of society and the ways in which capitalists use our anxieties. It looks that our fatness is a sickness and may be cured by your clinic."

Let’s talk about what’s wrong with the Belo ad.

It’s not the pandemic, Dra. It’s society’s beauty standards and the way capitalists ride on it to exploit our insecurities. It’s the way you make it look like our fatness is a disease and your clinic can cure it away. pic.twitter.com/4nvx4gujHn

the rc cola ad by gigil was great because it was just plain stupid. i love me a stupid humor.

but the new belo ad — it wasn't stupid. it was ignorant. it felt like a male gaze who supports d*terte, jacks off with left hand while slut-shaming women on the internet with his right

Saw the latest ad for Belo Medical.

Read the room. Promote your services, but not at the expense of people's insecurities. We're in a pandemic, and we're all just trying to survive. The last thing people need is an ad that points out body changes. Distasteful and insensitive.
