Circumcision device using rubber bands approved by WHO

times of Israel   The World Health Organization approved an Israeli-developed non-surgical circumcision device that could soon be used throughout Africa to help control AIDS. PrePex, a disposable and easy-to-use device made of rubber bands that obviates the need for anesthesia, stitches or a sterile setting, received WHO approval on Friday, The New York Times reported.  

The foreskin dies from a lack of oxygen and either falls off on its own or is easily cut off, according to reports.
