HIV and AIDS - Learn more about the worst pandemic in human history in our continuously updated special report.

This little bit at the bottom of the article just irritates me to no end.

Let’s be serious in a science magazine shall we.

AIDS is no doubt a serious problem. But I do not think it rises to the level of the medieval plagues or the great flue pandemic of the 1918-19.

Let us also remember that AIDS has a very important behavioral component that if one alters the risky behavior makes the disease nearly impossible to transmit.

Sorry if I have gone off on a tangent but having this kind of blatant extremist social propaganda on a Science website sets me off.

I am a bit of a purist when it comes to separating science and social activism.
