Abstract

During the 4 years from 1989/1990 to 1994 an increase in the use of condoms was registered. A high frequency of condom failures was reported and probably reflects inappropriate use. More efforts should be made to educate people how to use the condom. The impact of alcohol intake as a risk factor for unsafe sex seems to be significant and should also be stressed in educational safer sex programmes. STD patients are a well-motivated group for information about safer sex and condom use. Health workers in STD clinics have an important task in this context.
