Winter Olympic village runs out of condoms after three days

Free condoms have been provided since 1988 Olympics as athletes in Italy have been 'promised more will arrive'

Just under 3,000 athletes are competing at the Winter Olympics, compared to around 10,500 in the Paris Games two years ago.

Free condoms for competitors at the Winter Olympics have run out within a record-breaking three days, according to La Stampa.

“The supplies ran out in just three days,” an anonymous athlete told the Italian newspaper. “They promised us more will arrive, but who knows when.”
