To win the fight against syphilis, we need to increase screening and detection among high-risk individuals from once a year to every three months.

Well that will certainly keep Bill Clinton's calendar fully booked.

Homosexuals stopped using condoms, regardless of HIV. They expect a vaccine any day. There are apparently severe problems with having HIV, but not death, so, they don’t care.

Yeah, and they die 14 years early from HIV.

How about to try to win the fight, people stop engaging in the risky behaviors which spread the disease????

All that screening and detection does is identify people with the disease, after they have contracted the disease. While helpful, screening does nothing to stop the spread of disease.

Take a look at how effective all the VD avoidance programs for WWII GIs were and include all the Anti VD Cartoons.

Might help, to restart using them

I would be curious to know how many people have gotten HIV or other STDs through unintended methods like blood transfusions.

If all of these are all through willing consensual parties, then I feel more like an a-hole in this matter and would say to cut all medical benefits to anyone who contracts an STD.

I wonder what percentage of “refugees” are bringing this in with them as well.

It’s worked for me for the last 53 years!

That's amazing. Its worked for me too, for even longer. I wonder why the CDC and every liberal in government are so completely oblivious to the basic science behind your idea. Do they really hate facts that much?

>>increase screening

Or they could just RTFM... (Read The Field Manual)

Mark 10:5-9

Jesus replied. 6 "But at the beginning of creation God 'made them male and female.'a 7 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,b 8 and the two will become one flesh.'c So they are no longer two, but one. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." NIV

...and not void the MFG's warranty with all sorts of DUE PENALTIES in the first place.
