High Occurrence in Africa of HIV among Homosexual Men Study Finds
Life Site News ^ | July 21, 2009 | Patrick B. Craine

Posted on 07/21/2009 10:42:06 AM PDT by DesertRenegade

A new literature review, published by The Lancet, emphasizes the great proportion of HIV/AIDS cases among men who have sex with men (MSM) in sub-Saharan Africa, a fact often ignored in the fight against AIDS in Africa. The study concludes, however, that the solution to the problem lies in greater openness to homosexual practices from the African nations and better access to interventions, a solution that experts from the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) have called "simplistic."

The review, principally authored by Dr. Adrian D. Smith of the University of Oxford, calls for greater acceptance of MSM in sub-Saharan Africa, where the cultures are still mostly unwilling to accept homosexuality and the homosexulist agenda.

"Continued denial of MSM from effective HIV/AIDS prevention and care," they say, "is harmful to national HIV/AIDS responses." According to the review, male-to-male sex is illegal in 31 sub-Saharan countries, with the death penalty a possible punishment in four of them.

There is a need, say the researchers, for increased recognition of the HIV problem among MSM, which has been overlooked in sub-Saharan Africa. "Globally, [MSM] continue to bear a high burden of HIV infection," they write.

The initial research conducted in the early 1980s focused on heterosexual transmission, observe the researchers, suggesting that these findings have skewed the approach ever since. The result was that "the possibility that MSM might feature within this model [of HIV infection in Africa] soon disappeared from discussion."

Previous reports have also indicated that the idea that AIDS is primarily being transmitted through heterosexual relations in Africa may not have a firm basis in fact.

My, my, my ... what a surprise ... NOT! I always thought there was something suspicious about AIDS being almost exclusively a homosexual disease in the Western hemisphere while in Africa is was supposedly spread by heterosexuals. Now the truth finally comes out. No doubt, the homosexual militants are going to be outraged. But they can't dispute the scientific data which condemns their unhealthy lifestyle practices.

“...greater openness to homosexual practices...”

Hmm, don't know if that was intentional phrasing or not.

Lancet was a medical journal once but now it is a left wing & third world advocacy group. At least here the truth comes out. My guess is a lot of African men go both ways including apparently those w/o BC. Muslims talk about the sins to allah of homosexuality but I am sure it is a lot more common then the hyprocrites let on.

Hmmmm, wonder how the Obamaloon health care kooks plan to address the fact that certain “lifestyles” will naturally incur greater care costs. They address this with smoking, fatty foods....and ??

Oh, never mind. For a moment there I imagined that there were actually folks in the Obamaloon group that had measurable IQs.

Lifestyle choice is a big part of uhbamacare-you smoke, forget a lung transplant.

Since "lifestyle choice"will be a KEY FACTOR in determining who gets help in uhbamacare, if a homosexual, with a bunch of partners doing the deed brings about aids...well...will that homosexual get help from uhbamacare? What if he is an old coot homosexual who gets aids from a bloody bowel being pierced too much? Will HE get help? And what about a girl who comes into a planned parenthood for her tenth abortion...will SHE still be helped even though her lifestyle choice sucks?

"There is a need, say the researchers, for increased recognition of the HIV problem among MSM

There is need for truth. Everyone who has looked into it, knows that HIV/AIDS among MSM is 60+ percent of all cases even tyhough they are about 3% of the populus. To myself this fact says a tremndous amount regarding their lifestyle and the unnatural disorder it is. But, hey, maybe that's just me...

I think all we do is look what other Marxist/socialist/communist regimes did once they were in power and had no further use for their sexually deviant pawns. Just look at how the Nazi's, China, Soviet Union, Cuba, etc. Their agenda...the homosexual agenda is not created by homosexuals, but rather atheistic socialists/Marxist/communist to attack religion and tradition the two largest obstacles to the human person becoming simply an object whose existence depends only on what the State needs or desires. They, the socialist/Marxist/communist kill/persecute/imprison them later on...after their purpose is served.

I see. Promiscuity and refusal of single, unattached adults to use a condom 100% of the time has nothing to do with spreading a disease that is extremely difficult to spread outside of intimate sexual contact. /sarc

I belong to an organization called the Single Action Shooting Society or more commonly called SASS. You need a “name” and I picked Parley Baer as he played Chester on the radio series of Gunsmoke and in my mind had an old time ring to it. He also played Chester on the very first television pilot of Gunsmoke.

And the worst part is they want to encourage anal sex and homosexuality. Homosexuality is a behavior that drastically reduces the lifespan of those who practice it. It is a fact and so many are in denial. It is like global warming but far more insidious.
