RT: Crisis Chronicle : Price hikes could lead to HIV

RT: Crisis Chronicle : Price hikes could lead to HIV: "Price hikes could lead to HIV
A sharp rise in the price of condoms could expose poor people to HIV infection, according to a Ukrainian think tank.
With the drop in value of the Ukrainian currency, imported condoms are now 40 to 60 per cent more expensive then they were in October last year, reports UNIAN news agency.

It’s believed the nation’s youth, the biggest consumers of condoms, but also the ones with the least money to spend, are most at risk."
