Russians fear that condom manufacturers are withdrawing from the market. The British company Reckitt currently has over 60 percent of the market. It produces, among others Durex.
А тем временем на России пачка презервативов в некоторых магазинах стоит уже 5295 рублей. По нынешнему курсу это 50 долларов!

Due to the panic, all condoms sold out quickly. The price of the rest rose to more than 5,000 rubles – more than £40. Despite the price, there are huge lines at pharmacies and shops.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade has published a communiqué. It assured that there will be no shortage of goods, because producers do not want to withdraw from the market.
