“Unprecedented” Transmission of Highly Drug-Resistant HIV in France

French researchers are concerned after identifying a young man in France who contracted a strain of HIV that has superlatively extensive resistance to antiretroviral (ARV) treatment for the virus.

Typically, the more that HIV mutates and develops resistance to a broad range of ARVs, the less “fit” it becomes—meaning it does not replicate or transmit as effectively. Consequently, there has been little documented transmission of such highly resistant strains throughout the history of ARV treatment.

So the discovery of this new transmission, which investigators described as an “unprecedented event” in a letter in The Lancet, is a worrisome surprise. The letter’s authors indicated that the strain is even more drug resistant than one famously identified in New York City in 2004.

What a surprise. Give a virus a “workout” by failing not only to restrict opportunities for development through transmissions, but by ENCOURAGING its proliferation through “rights,” and now they’re surprised that it doesn’t outstrip our ability to mitigate its strengthening.

Don’t put your pud where it doesn’t belong, NO problem.

Call Dr. Fauci....He'll get on a vaccine for it. Might take a while though.

How is this transmitted? Nevermind...we don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

The highly promiscuous homosexual lifestyle GUARANTEES the rapid spread of treatment-resistant diseases, and makes inevitable that diseases among them will rapidly evolve resistance to all treatments.

We are rediscovering just why societies suppressed homosexuality - because societies that didn’t, died

I believe it was around 1985 when he said a vaccine was right around the corner. Swing and a miss on that one.

Put a mask on it and pitch a tent, but keep it dry.

What’s the downside?

[bramps]

I have a thought on this issue, butt...

It’s amazing the size of the homosexual sex network which allows wildfire infections to proliferate across the globe in literal days. I think there’s a club signal that you can give. It involves the exchange of body fluids and is universally accepted in this population.

Thank Obama for lifting the restriction of immigration and visitors from abroad who are HIV carriers. Thanks to that, this strain of HIV will inevitably make it to our shores in no time flat.

Doing the French Mistake .

[who_would_fardels_bear]

Which hypocritical phalanx of men recently swarmed into France? You know the guys that throw gays off buildings but like abusing young boys?

Is it the Amish I'm thinking about or some other group?

[Defiant]

The French never resisted anything before.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

Thank Obama

Don't you mean Thank Bathhouse Barry?

We all have to wear masks and possibly a forced vaccination to prevent the spread of something somewhat more severe than the flu. What will be forced on homosexuals to prevent the spread of this?

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Another sodomite who practiced ‘bug-chasing”?

Not impressed or surprised.

I have a fairly promiscuous female friend with a number of gay friends.
She says they are insane with their careless disregard for anyone’s health.
Frankly she is terrified of this new “gay lifestyle”
