And again, David, your credibility to be shot out of the water....But one of the new regions of greatest concern is eastern Europe, and Russia in particular, where experts predict more than a million people will be infected by HIV within two years.

And this from your own BBC. Is it possible for you to get even one statistic correct?

There are now almost 70,000 cases of full blown Aids registered with the National Aids Centre in Russia - compared to just over 5,500 last year Another quote for you. Though the article is from 2000 it estimates that (and these are the pessimistic estimates) by 2002 there will be 2 million infected.

It says: "In this era in which few young gay men have seen friends die of Aids, and some mistakenly view anti-retrovirals as a cure, there is growing complacency about the HIV risk..."

Here by the way is a quote on homosexual issues.

Right, so its time for a government AIDS publicity campaign, wouldn't you say? IV drug abusers, as cited in your BBC article, are the main reason the AIDS epidemic has accelerated in Russia.

...AIDS spreads faster, as has been shown to be the case over and over, through the Gay Population because many choose a very high risk life style with dozens of partners...much more so then heterosexuals...

That depends on whether or not they are using condoms. I've come across many heterosexuals who also have had dozens of partners, promiscuity is not limited to some homosexuals you know.
