Then try bringing your solution to leaders in world governments. Even the worst dictators considerer your suggestion barbaric and sick.

BS. The approach of leper colonies was common before effective drugs were developed to deal with the problem. Similar isolation would work for HIV. Permitting people with incurable, communicable diseases to continue to mingle with uninfected individuals is sick and barbaric.

I'm well aware of the TB problems. My family is in the U.S. because my great great grandparents both died from TB.

BS.

Then show me where in the world people with HIV are being quarantined in camps.

You can't.

Yeah, but AIDS is not spread like those other diseases. You don't want to catch it? Don't engage in risky behavior. It's that simple.

Other airborne pathogens are a different story.
