Condoms pose deadly threat

German scientists came to the conclusion that the majority of condoms
contain carcinogens causing cancer.
 
 According to the specialists of the Institute of Chemical Research in
Shtutgart, Germany, 29 out of the 32 kinds of the researched condoms
contain N-Nitrosamine carcinogen.
 
 "N-Nitrosamine is one of the most poisonous carcinogens|, said the
research author. ?Condom producers should be pressed to deal with this
issue|.
 
 Scientists suspect that this carcinogen is contained in the additional
substances condoms are made of. After the rubber contacts person-s skin,
the dangerous substance can penetrate into the person-s organism.
