Meth has become the diversion of choice when discussing the overwhelming appearance of HIV in the homosexual community.
Even the super-strain of HIV is laid at the door of meth and not at the door of massive promiscuity which allows the bug to alter itself after so many environments and anti-HIV drugs it gets to withstand.
Meth was used extensively in the drug cultures of the late 60's and the 70's. Oddly enough, meth users didn't contract HIV. /sarcasm
