There is a joke circulating in San Salvador these days: “Instead of using a condom, use a mosquito net! That should at least keep the mosquitoes from biting your privates.”
The joke is a dig at the unusual suggestion made by the governments of El Salvador and various other Latin American countries. Brazil, Colombia and Ecuador (as well as Jamaica) have advised that women hold off on getting pregnant. El Salvador went as far as to urge women to hold back on having children until 2018.
