One of the sex workers told a local television station that the area has been suffering from a condom shortage for some time and that the few condoms that are available come from Uganda, a neighboring nation.
She spoke to NTV;
“Our lives are in danger, thus we are begging with the government to give condoms to Busia.”
Other citizens claimed that if the government doesn’t step in, they run the risk of having unintended pregnancies.
The lack of condoms was attributed to a decrease in international donor money, according to Janerose Ambuchi, the director of medical services in Busia county, who claimed that her office was unaware of the recycling of contraceptives in the region.
She stated:
“I haven’t seen it on my desk, but if it’s happening, it shouldn’t be permitted to continue since the condom’s integrity will be compromised. This generation will be put in risk by the second and third uses brought on by a lack of condoms.
“The county (Busia) is dealing with a severe condom shortage, which is a county-wide issue. It’s a widespread issue. This product is supported by donations and is based on a global fund. Donor financing has decreased currently.
