I’m not seeing the stats that reveal that these cases are overwhelmingly men-with-men transmissions. I suppose providing that info would be racist.

VERY good point.

"High-risk behaviours include using social media to arrange casual and often anonymous sexual encounters, having sex without a condom, having multiple sex partners, and having sex while under the influence of drugs or alcohol," the statement says.

Male homosexuals are prone to the above.

Grindr is a homo hookup app. So I would assume most of the people using it are perverts

I don’t think much gets by you. Good observation.

Here in WV it is a staggering 113 percent increase in syphilis alone. A seventeenth century disease with a seventeenth century cause and a seventeen century rot. Unfortunately, it is also being driven by IV drugs, in addition to it’s usual transmission. Co-infections of Hep C and HIV in heterosexual women too. In all my years of healthcare, I have never seen these rates (and mine are based on observation, not actual data.. Except the 113 percent, that is state data for my county.
I am waiting to hear when the Cuban variant of HIV hits this country. Full blown AIDS in two years. It won’t be a cool homosexual badge of honor then.
Glad to be happily married.

Yep. You notice they don’t specify gay or hetero sex.My guess is that the bonesmokers own the vast majority of these cases.
