About 1,35 million condoms are being recalled as we speak. They were handed out at the recent ANC centenary celebrations. The reason? The have been found to break during intercourse and others are “porous”.
AIDS activist Sello Mokhalipi of the Treatment Action Campaign said he complained after “we had people flocking in, coming to report that the condoms had burst while they were having sex. Some were panicking because they were infected with AIDS and were concerned for their partners.”
We poured water into the condoms and they were leaking, not just in one place, they were leaking like a sieve. Looking at them, you can see there are small pores.
But wait, it gets better.
All the condoms were stamped to indicate that they were in batches that had been quality tested by the South African Bureau of Standards, which is responsible for ensuring they meet the standards of the World Health Organization. Bureau spokeswoman Verna Schutte confirmed that they were “investigating the condoms.”
But don’t worry guys, its all under control.
Spokesman Jabu Mbalula of the health department of Free State province, which distributed the condoms before the January 6 – 8 celebrations, said they had recalled the entire batch of 1 350 000 condoms. He said there was “no need for a panic.”
