2026 Winter Olympics Village Ran Out Of Condoms After Just 3 Days
- During the Winter Olympics, free condoms were depleted within three days, with officials saying shipments are en route but timing remains unclear.
- Organizers initially stocked fewer than 10,000 condoms for roughly 3,000 athletes, far fewer than the 300,000 distributed to about 10,500 athletes at the Paris Summer Games two years ago.
- This is the first time media reports say the condom supply has been depleted at the Games, with village rules changed post-COVID and local officials framing the giveaway as routine public-health policy.
- La Stampa criticized organizers' planning over the shortfall, while Lombardy regional governor Attilio Fontana defended free condoms as standard Olympic practice on social media.
- The depletion raises public-health and logistical concerns, and with just under 3,000 competitors, the smaller athlete pool did not prevent a rapid shortage affecting athletes' experience.
