ATLANTA, Dec. 1--A rise in new cases of AIDS and HIV infection among gay and bisexual men in many U.S. states, reported in a federal study Wednesday, has given support for concerns the disease is resurgent in the country.
The report by the Centers for Disease control and Prevention, released in connection with World AIDS Day, said new HIV and AIDS diagnoses in 32 U.S. states rose 11 percent among gay and bisexual men between 2000 and 2003.
Rates were stable among most other population sectors, and the overall infection rate rose to 19.7 cases per 100,000 people in 2003 from 19.5 per 100,000 people in 2000.

Damn that spontaneous generation!
It's Reagan's fault!
This is what happens when people let lust rule all else.
Will they ever realize that the bunghole is for oneway traffic only. Having a degree in microbiology, I can tell you with some authority, that the poop shoot is no place to be hanging out with friends.
This was a no-brainer.
There is no such thing as safe sex with gay men. And, no way are they gonna always use condoms and limit partners.
Personally, I believe homosexual sex is right up there with heating a lava lamp on a stove to make the lava speed up....bad things happen in both cases
They have to close all of our public parks here at dusk because gay and bisexual men were going there to make whoopie, to have RU RU as we call it here. They also use illegal drugs there. They KNOW what is causing AIDS and they CHOOSE to continue their risky behavior. And somehow we are supposed to feel guilty and pay to help them? WHY?????
I think you are RIGHT!

That is what my 23 year old son says. They are using a body part for something it was not intended for. Things are supposed to come out, not go in there.
In other news, the sun will rise in the east tomorrow.
Sex, drugs, alcohol, gambling, eating, etc. are the instant gratification pyrite for the weak-minded. Gold just isn't as readily available and isn't worth the effort for most folks.
The drugs for HIV are expensive! I guesstimate a couple of thousands of dollars per month. Think before you go into heat.
that made me laugh out loud, you should put that on your business cards
We are not supposed to say so, but this is one reason why bisexuality is especially dangerous. Homosexuals spread AIDS among themselves, where the disease is relatively isolated. Bisexuals spread it into the wider community, passing it on to women and then into families and children born of AIDS-infected women. That seems to have been what has happened in Africa, where AIDS is far more common among women than it is here.
Of course the sharing of needles by drug addicts is another avenue into the wider community. But if the public health authorities were doing their jobs, they would try to prevent the disease from spreading in this way. Far from it. It would be illegal for them to even attempt to stop the spread of AIDS because it would infringe on the rights of gays and bisexuals to do their thing.
