Free condoms and AIDS prevention leaflets have been distributed throughout the Olympic Village and hundreds of Beijing hotels in a bid to promote awareness of the disease, the city's health chief said yesterday.
More than 400,000 condoms and some 250,000 copies of the pamphlet have been placed in hotel rooms across the city, Jin Dapeng, head of the municipal health bureau, said at a press conference in Beijing entitled "The 29th Olympics and AIDS Prevention - the Flapping Red Ribbon".
A quarter of the condoms, 100,000, were allocated to the Olympic Village, he said.
