Just how dangerous is it to your health to shack up with a Mexican hooker? That’s the question at the heart of a five-year, $3,029,663 study by researchers at the University of California San Diego funded by the National Institutes of Health.
The five-year study is taking the first-ever look at the love lives – and sexually transmitted diseases – of 200 prostitutas mexicanas and their “non-commercial” male partners.
Based on previous research, UCSD scientists have been able to determine conclusively that the “non-commercial male partners” of Mexican prostitutes are very likely to pick up and spread their partners’ sexually-transmitted diseases, and may in fact be “significant drivers of HIV/STI acquisition and/or their re-infection.”
Begun in 2009, the Mexican prostitute study has already been receiving federal funding of over half a million dollars annually, and the $3 million price tag does not include the as-of-yet undetermined 2014 grant

Health risks to members of Congress?
I guess it depends on what the meaning of “dating” is.
If it’s a prostitute it’s not dating. Just sayin’.
Can I get $3 million to issue a study on risks of hookers?
You don’t need a whole report. Just a few sentences such as these are what you need to know. If you consort with a known prostitute, who had done God knows what with God knows how many men, you are at an increased risk of VD. It seems like common sense. So, if you want to avoid VD and risks associated with the prostitution business, avoid the prostitutes. Then, you for sure will avoid any diseases. Make sense????
Wow. Who would have guessed?
Eliminating war theater hazard pay...
Elimination promising defense shield development...
Eliminating so many other things...
So we can do stuff like this.
There you go... thanks POTUS POSUS
Did Menendez back this?
Depends. If you’re 67 and she’s 23, it’s very dating... :^)
No, these were women over 18.
Common sense is MUCH cheaper than NIH studies like this. Who the hell signed off on that? Which bill was that snuck into? THAT’S what we should be looking into.
University of California - Davis. To be run by Big Sis in a few more weeks. And we wonder why “Big University” isn’t vilified in the manner of “Big Oil”?
Coordinator of said study as listed on the CNS link..

Are the researchers of U of Cal, San Diego gathering personal data?
And what will the study results prove, where will it be published and who is going to give a rat’s a$$?
The usual waste of tax dollars spent by socialist PhD’s to justify their existence on the university payrolls.
Could that possibly work with STDs transmitted through gay sex?
Those researchers need a special reward..
How about a month in quarantine?
with Janet Napolitano as she de-programs..
Filthy hypocrites. They waste our money!
Fast and Furriest
I wonder whether Senator Mendez from NJ will request a study on STD risks from Dominican prostitutes.
