When it comes to the effects of coronavirus, it seems no industry is safe.

New reports reveal the sex industry is being hit particularly hard by the global pandemic.

A government-imposed lockdown in Malaysia has forced the world’s largest condom manufacturer Karex Bhd closed.

The Guardian is reporting the manufacturer – which produces around 20 per cent of all condoms globally – has now not made a condom in over a week.

Operations will soon get started again, but with a reduced workforce. And according to Karex Bhd CEO Goh Miah Kiat, we’re now looking down the barrel of a global condom shortage.

“We are going to see a global shortage of condoms everywhere, which is going to be scary,” he told The Guardian. “My concern is that for a lot of humanitarian programmes … in Africa, the shortage will not just be two weeks or a month. That shortage can run into months.”

And it seems condoms are not the only sex product that will be in scarce supply.

A sex doll shortage also now looms, due to the closure of factories in China and increased usage.

In an interview with The Sun earlier this month, Sex Doll Official boss Jade Stanley confirmed the trend.

“People who buy these products are often people who can’t – or don’t want to -go out a lot,” Stanley said.

“That’s especially so with coronavirus….we are having an awful lot of phone calls.”

But perhaps the most interesting COVID-19-related development in the sex industry has come from medical fetish site MedFetUK.

The site, which claims to be “100 per cent dedicated to medical fetish”, produces genuine medical-grade products for the bedroom.

The high-quality production has allowed the company to donate stock to the NHS, which is currently strained with over 20,000 confirmed COVID-19 cases.

“Today we donated our entire stock of disposable scrubs to an NHS hospital. It was just a few sets, because we don’t carry large stocks, but they were desperate, so we sent them free of charge,” MedFetUK said in a statement.

“A few have suggested this might be ‘fake news’. It’s not. The scrubs went to a hospital in southern England. We won’t say where exactly because the last thing they need right now is to be drawn into this. Honestly, we wish it wasn’t true, but it is.”
