Swiss prostitutes are being trained to use defibrillators to prevent clients with heart problems from dying on them, it has emerged.

 

Published: 6:30AM GMT 18 Feb 2010

 

Brothel owners in the Lugano area say electric shock treatment to restart customer's hearts is needed because so many elderly customers are using their services.

The most recent victim was a pensioner, thought to be having fun with the help of anti-impotence medication.

 His death followed a series of other incidents, some fatal, in which heart attacks have claimed brothel customers in the area.

The owner of one sex club said: "Having customers die on us isn't exactly good publicity".

There are now 38 sex clubs and brothel in the Lugano area. And more are planned, according to Italian daily, Corriere della Sera, in order to accommodate the thousands of customers who pour over the border from Italy, where brothels are illegal. Around 80 per cent of the men who pay for sex in the area are thought to be Italian.

The sex trade in the pretty, lakeside Swiss town is also being fuelled by prostitutes from South America and Eastern Europe who enter the country via Italy.

Local health experts are said to have backed the plans to stock defibrillators in sex clubs and brothels.

Defibrillators work by delivering a controlled electric shock to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat, after it has stopped.

According to the British Heart Foundation: "Modern defibrillators are becoming increasingly quick and easy for the lay person to use, which can mean the difference between life and death".

I'm shocked you couldn't keep the puns coming on this one. They say that you can still get a charge out of sex when you're old.

Shucks. I guess I'm just not wired that way and besides that, I'm not into AC/DC.

Got a battery of puns about this, too? AAA? I "C" right through you.

That's a hard cell. Boy... if I had a nickel cadmium for every time I said that.

Beautiful posts, and not a bit negative. I'm positive that you're powering in the right direction.

I'm ever ready and that's a real plus but minus the dishonorable discharge.

I feel empowered by this thread. I'm guessing that the customers who die there have huge-assed grins on their faces.
