Infected needles were found to comprise a small percentage of infection (around 2.5-3%) in the last decade.

That's UN WHO Propaganda and clearly shows you don't know what the hell you are talking about. "Note the figure of 30% unsafe injection use the world over. But somehow in Africa unsafe injection use only contributes 2.5%"

The WHO has an agenda and doesn't want Africans to stop using condoms. We're concerned that a report like this might tend to make people drop their guard and not use condoms. If the WHO wasn't so tied to the pharmaceutical companies, the needle problem or the "Big Truth" would be exposed.

Something I have said on similar threads (including the one where the dude was trying to assert AIDS doesn't exist and is due to 'Malaria and TB'). 1) Many governments enjoy using the dollars sent to them for AIDS relief to plush their Swiss accounts. For every dollar sent only cents reach the people most at need, if they are lucky. Which is why the (highly successful) programs in Uganda, Zambia and Cote d'Vore were local (waiting for foreign dollars to reach would have been futile). However, even though the corruption is crazy doesn;t mean that the problem doesn't exist (one of the guys was trying to say it is all a farce to nad greenbacks).

2) To quote FormerLib there is a lot of 'Agenda diven' science ....particularly when it comes to statistics. I would be a fool and/or a liar to discount that. And several organizations do have a stake in certain aspects. That's the truth. However two things arise. The first being that agendas cut both ways (with both sides of the spectrum having their own agendas), and that the spread of HIV in the 3rd world is primarily due to heterosexual modes.

3) When I say this I am not trying to paint homosexuality with Lily-white colors (just in case you are wondering). To me it is a sin, the Bible i read says it is a sin, and even without it I still know in my heart it is not natural (plus being anathema to the several cultures that make my varied ethnic background). Thus i am not in anyway defending homosexuality. However with that said that will not make me say global AIDS is due to homosexuality, particularly in Africa and Asia, because it simply isn't.

It is not wise to compare Africa with developed countries.
Africans die daily from preventable diseases that would require a mere innoculation to prevent. In a region like this where witch doctors are used more often than actual physicians, how many have actually ever seen a needle?
