HIV Rate Up 12 Percent Among Young Gay Men

Washington Post ^ | Friday, June 27, 2006 | David Brown

[Pinkbell]

The number of young homosexual men being newly diagnosed with HIV infection is rising by 12 percent a year, with the steepest upward trend in young black men, according to a new report.

The double-digit increase in young gay men is about 10 times higher than in the homosexual community overall, where the number of new infections is going up about 1.5 percent a year.

The report, released yesterday by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, appears to confirm impressions that a "second-wave" AIDS epidemic is underway in gay America.

Thinning the herd!

[fightinJAG]

Not to mention the expense. Uh, to the taxpayer.

[am452]

My “give a damn” meter is busted. Oh boohoo.

Lay with dogs...get fleas

[fightinJAG]

When the government subsidizes the consequences of a behavior, people engage in the behavior more or more recklessly.

It’s the central dilemna of all public health care policies. Is it possible to fund health care in such a way that it doesn’t increase social pathologies?

When charity was private, those doling it out could (theoretically) restrict grants based on probable outcomes. That said, there’s probably been no greater beneficiary of private charity and fundraising in history than AIDS.

Imagine that...they come up with a way to keep HIV pos. people alive longer and the behaviors increase.

[inflorida]

Went to the Dr. this week for a cold. While I'm there she mentions that the fastest, broadest spread of HIV in the DC area is among heterosexual couples.

I wonder if that isn't because of so-called "straight" men diddling on the side with their gay lovers.

[Minnesoootan]

or,the woman messing around with a bisexual?

[MrB]

Idiotic choices in life have consequences...

that liberals insist should be paid for by others, especially in the case of sexual behavior choices.

[gathersnomoss]

Uh huh. If you believe that, then here in my suburban neighborhood south of Richmond married couples also are seeing a huge increase in AIDS.

This is for the most part a liberal disease. Don't think so?...just ask any gay person who they will vote for.

Also, ask them if they are Christian, you know, someone who reads the Bible. They are 180% out of phase.

AIDS is a politically funded, politically protected disease. Welcome to the Socialist States of America.

[krb]

Sounds plausible. Remember, if the number of infected people goes from 2 to 4, that is a 100% increase.

[CodeToad]

Sodomy is a bloody sport.

[massgopguy]

That’s because she lied.

[dfwgator]

Everyone has AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS!
AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!
Everyone has AIDS!

And so this is the end of our story
And everyone is dead from AIDS
It took from me my best friend
My only true pal
My only bright star (he died of AIDS)

Well I’m gonna march on Washington
Lead the fight and charge the brigades
There’s a hero inside of all of us
I’ll make them see everyone has AIDS

My father (AIDS!)
My sister (AIDS!)
My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS AIDS AIDS!)
The gays and the straights
And the white and the spades

Everyone has AIDS!
My grandma and my dog ‘ol blue (AIDS AIDS AIDS)
The pope has got it and so do you (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
C’mon everybody we got quilting to do (AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS)
We gotta break down these baricades, everyone has
AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!

[Eaker]

That’s a lot of money per person for eash AIDS case. It’s a shame they can’t find a much cheaper solution to the problem.

Ummm .....There is a cheaper solution. Keeping one's pecker out of fag's butts and vice-versa. This won't do much to prevent the other diseases but it will help prevent the spread of aids.

[wbill]

Clearly this result is due to the lack of availability of condoms ...And here I was thinking that AIDS was caused by a lack of funding.

[SlapHappyPappy]

If a guy diddles a guy, he’s gay, no matter what he calls himself.

[the lone wolf]

"Went to the Dr. this week for a cold. While I'm there she mentions that the fastest, broadest spread of HIV in the DC area is among heterosexual couples.

Seems hard to believe."

That is because it is hard to believe. Hundreds of additional "gay" men get GRID/AIDS and it shows up in the statistics as a 12% increase. One or two additional persons who claim to be straight get infected and it shows up as an emormous increase for heterosexuals. Just how many new infections are we talking about here?

[LongTimeMILurker]

Wouldn’t the logical thing to do to stop the Republicans from causing AIDS be to stop the behavior that spreads it around? Stop anal sex to get back at the Republicans!

[Scotswife]

“Yeah! Bet they don’t tell the kids this in school when they are telling them how “normal” homosexuality is..

Hell no! Just sodomize your way to a painful and early death, it’s all good, so long as it promotes the militant gay agenda. “

Anal sex is more dangerous than smoking, but there’s no warning from the surgeon general.
Instead - we are supposed to support gay “marriage” as though it is a healthy thing. Not something that will take decades off the life expectancy.

And while adoption agencies tell heterosexual couples in their late 40’s and early 50’s they are too old to adopt (they might not be around long enough for the child), we are supposed to support gay men adopting children even though their life expectancy ensures they will not be around.
