Free WorldCup Condoms?!!!

So the world cup starts tomorrow guys, the countdown is over..damn I'm excited...check out the cape town stadium..awesome! i knew we wont dissapoint...

But on the sidelines guess what I'm hearing, South African hoteliersare going to distribute 160,000 free condoms to urge World Cup guests to “play it safe”. The give-away feeds into South Africa’s boosted AIDS efforts, with a massive counselling and testing drive to target 15 million South African by next June.

The condoms are among one million to be given out by the Department of Health during the tournament in a country with one of the world’s highest HIV-infected populations. They will be left in rooms at about 100 hotels. Instructions for use will be included.
“We are distributing one million condoms across the country,” said Kai Crooks-Chissano, project manager at the South African Business Coalition on HIV/Aids. “We thought one of the best places for condom use might just be in the bedrooms. Good sex is safe sex.”  (reports from South African news)
The condom packaging has been branded in a partnership with tourist associations and hotel chains.

Cape Town Tourism adopted the message “play it safe in Cape Town”, while the Southern Sun chain will offer condoms branded “I am responsible” at 60 hotels. Wow, seems like the condom industry is making big bucks off the world cup!
Just Last week South African Aids organisations accused Fifa of blocking access to condoms and HIV education materials at World Cup stadiums and fan parks. However Fifa denied that it had undermined the activities of the country’s HIV testing campaign.
