How do so many women tie their hair with "condom rubber bands"? A few days ago, the relevant professionals of Shenzhen Family Planning Service Center in Guangdong Province tested the "condom rubber bands" purchased by reporters from Shenzhen and Guangzhou, and said that these condoms were unused and industrial waste. Judging from the material texture, they may be "foreign garbage" from abroad.
Guess 1: industrial waste
A few days ago, the reporter came to Shenzhen Family Planning Service Center with the "condom rubber band" purchased from Guangzhou and Shenzhen. After disassembling the "condom rubber band", the professionals in the relevant departments carefully touched and pulled the half condoms with their hands, and then told reporters that these condoms should be unused industrial waste.
Subsequently, professionals took out a lot of regular condoms on the market, and told reporters after opening them that in the manufacturer, according to the production process of condoms, in the final process, if there is no problem with electronic testing, silicone oil needs to be applied and lubricant added to make the finished product. If there is a problem, you will not enter this process. There is no silicone oil on the surface of the condom in the rubber band. It seems that the rubber band manufacturer painted talcum powder on it.
In addition, the cost of recycling used condoms is very high, and it is unlikely that such a large number of "condom rubber bands" will enter the market. Therefore, it is almost certain that condoms in the "rubber band" flow from condom manufacturers to the market.
Guess 2: foreign garbage
The Measures for the Supply, Distribution and Management of Contraceptives jointly promulgated by the State Family Planning Commission and National Medical Products Administration clearly pointed out that all products that do not meet the quality standards are not allowed to leave the factory. So where did so many used condoms come from? In this regard, a professional of the Family Planning Center said that she has been engaged in this work for more than ten years. From the quality point of view, many condoms in "rubber bands" are very elastic and transparent white, so latex with such good quality can't be produced in China. Therefore, she agrees that these junk condoms are "foreign garbage" from abroad.
Regarding this point of view, relevant persons from Shenzhen Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau said that condom "foreign garbage" has not been found in Shenzhen.
Sanitary conditions cannot be monitored.
Another professional from the Shenzhen Family Planning Center said that it is impossible to recycle condoms, because condoms are vulcanized in the processing and the final process. Moreover, countries and manufacturers have strict requirements on the management and production of condoms, and a large number of discarded condoms are produced every day. So how to deal with these discarded condoms is also a problem. The materials of these used condoms are very elastic, and if they are made into rubber bands, they can be regarded as the reuse of industrial waste. However, at present, there is no legal provision in the country to do so, but it is forbidden to enter the market. Therefore, the hygienic status of these condoms entering the market cannot be monitored, and if they are "foreign garbage", their hygienic status cannot be guaranteed. In addition, even if there is no problem with the quality and hygiene of the "condom rubber band", many consumers are psychologically unacceptable.
This person said that this shows that there are loopholes in the supervision link. If these used condoms are processed and packaged by illegal manufacturers and enter the market, their harm will be even greater, which should attract the attention of relevant departments!
