Alarm over shortage of condoms in Homa Bay

Reproductive and sexual health rights groups in Homa Bay County have raised the red flag over a biting condom shortage in the region, which, they said, is likely to lead to a drastic increase in HIV prevalence.

The activists said the condom crisis will make the county unable to achieve government's goal of ending new HIV infections by 2030 and lead to a spike in sexually transmitted infections especially among the youth and other vulnerable groups, including men having sex with men and sex workers.
