Swiss Prostitutes Trained To Use Defibrillators

Swiss men with weak hearts don't have to worry about visiting brothels anymore. Prostitutes in Switzerland are being trained to use defibrillators in case their clients give out while they're giving it up. There have been so many heart attacks at brothels in the Lugano area recently that owners say defibrillators, and people trained in their use, are needed. The owner of one sex club said: "Having customers die on us isn't exactly good publicity."

      Having a customer die ON them might cause some heart attacks in itself.

  4. Defibrillators are not uncommon in Switzerland by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually, defibrillators are not uncommon in Switzerland. They have these really small portable and easy to use devices, which are stored together with the first aid kit. I work in an regular office in Switzerland, and we have a defibrillator as part of the first aid kit on our floor. Our whole team was "trained" to use it, which just means someone came and spent 15 minutes explaining how and when to use it.
