Italians in quarantine have been offered free porn to pass the time.

Pornhub announced on Friday it would give free premium subscriptions to those in Italy until April.

"Forza Italia, we love you!" the company wrote.

"To help you during these weeks at home, for the whole month you can access Pornhub Premium free of charge, with no need to use your credit card."

Italy has been rocked by a coronavirus outbreak which has killed more than 800 people. The entire country has been locked down to stop the spread of the disease. All residents and visitors are urged to remain quarantined at home.
