Beijing is to make condoms more accessible in its hotels, nightclubs and construction sites, according to a meeting on the city's health work on Saturday.

The move came amid the municipal government's tightened efforts to prevent sexually-transmitted diseases.

Guesthouses, hotels and scenic resorts are all required to put condoms in toilets, and night clubs, bathing centers and major construction sites should have condom-selling vendors installed.

The condoms shall not be used as evidence of prostitution and whoring, according to the meeting.

Beijing Municipal AIDS Prevention and Control Working Committee, the organization that launched the campaign, has urged local public security bureaus and health bodies to organize trainings for hotel managers on the promotion of condom use.
