<P>Beijing, China (AHN) - Health officials in mainland China express alarm over 
reports that a company in Southern China was recycling condoms as hair bands, 
which they say could pass over the sexually transmitted diseases to whoever will 
use the recycled condoms, report said Tuesday. </p> <P>Latest report shows that in Dongguan and Guangzhou cities in Guangdong 
southern province, Chinese-made recycled products such as headbands and rubber 
bands made of used condoms were seen being openly sold in local markets and 
beauty shops. </p> <P>Report said, "These cheap and colorful rubber bands and hair ties sell well 
... threatening the health of local people." </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/BA824672-D330-4F7B-B0CB-89326A8C8928/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
