Observant ... Cuba , like the Soviet Union in it’s heyday , has a 90%+ abortion rate ,,, it’s not much of a stretch to mandate that all pregnant women with HIV abort.. I trust their numbers less than I trust Obama’s U3 unemployment numbers.

I remember reading something early on in the AIDS epidemic, when American homosexuals were resisting common-sense measures like shutting down the bath houses, that Cuba was isolating those with AIDS from the general population.
