Catholic World News : UN sends condoms to starving people in Myanmar
Bangkok, May. 23, 2008 (CWNews.com) - In answer to the grave humanitarian crisis among cyclone victims in Myanmar, the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) is sending nearly 250,000 condoms.
“We don’t want regular use of contraception disrupted,” a spokesman for the UNFPA told reporters. The UN agency is also providing oral and injected contraceptives.
More than 2 million people in Myanmar face an urgent need for food, clothing, medication, and shelter.
