Tras mi apuesta del día antes de San Valentín en que dedicaba un post a la fabricación de muñecas hinchables en China, he decidido mostrar este trabajo de Reuters en el que se muestra el proceso en una fábrica de condones en ese mismo país. No hay ninguna duda de que los condones también pegan mucho con este romántico 14 de febrero y hago un llamamiento a su utilización en este día señalado como método de lucha contra las enfermedades de transmisión sexual, en especial el devastador VIH. Aunque hay que tener en cuenta que este reportaje nos ha llegado para ilustrar el aniversario del plan de planificación familiar aprobado por el gobierno chino y cómo ha afectado a la industria del condón. Toda relación con el día de San Valentín es pura coincidencia.

Este post también sirve como ejemplo de reportaje estándar de prensa como lo era la anterior entrega "Una fábrica de muñecas hinchables". Os muestro todas las fotos que ha enviado la agencia con su pie original. Así podéis ver un típico encargo y cómo finaliza el fotoperiodista. En el ejemplo de hoy también os incluyo el aviso que envia la agencia Reuters para alertar a los editores abonados de que se comienza a enviar el paquete... de imágenes claro.
