Canada’s British Columbia Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC) has released its safe-sex guidelines for the coronavirus pandemic, which suggest that the use of “glory holes” can curb the spread of virus.
The term refers to small holes cut into barriers for partners to engage in sexual intercourse with minimal skin-to-skin contact, leaving just the private areas exposed to one another.
Experts suggested that the safest form of sex as of now would be to reduce face-to-face contact and avoid other bodily fluids, including saliva. Some of the safe sex tools encouraged are condoms, dental dams, and lubricants.
In Canada, the official health government is now encouraging people to use glory holes to combat the spread of the novel coronavirus. “Use barriers, like walls (e.g., glory holes), that allow for sexual contact but prevent close face-to-face contact,” the BCCDC website states.
Other recommendations include picking sexual positions with less face-to-face contact, as well as avoiding or limiting “kissing and saliva exchange.”
