U.S. to Take Another Look at Gay Blood Donation Ban
National Journal ^ | 7/26/11 | Maggie Fox

Posted on 07/26/2011 6:29:31 PM PDT by Nachum

A policy that bars gay men from donating blood for life is “suboptimal,” advisers to the Health and Human Services Department said on Tuesday, and needs another look. HHS asked a committee of experts on blood and tissue donations to reexamine the policy and see if there is a way to let at least some gays donate blood. (snip)Men who have sex with other men, including gay and bisexual men, have an HIV infection rate 60 times higher than that of the general population

“More depressing than the Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s wards.”

I can’t imagine it being more depressing than Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The majority of the AIDS patients have engaged in risky lifestyles that they know will most likely result in their deaths — and deaths of others. The other groups are there due to twists of fate.

“So when liberals contract some vile illness because of a change in this policy, will they smile and “celebrate diversity” as their lives are cut short by said vile illness?”

The elites will have “private” or directed blood transfusions. You...... Not so much. Ever wonder how Arthur Ashe got aids????

I have a family member who has Alzheimer’s. With AIDS patients, they know who’s visiting them. With Alzheimer’s, the patient does not have a clue who the family members visiting them are..now which scenario is more painful emotionally?

50 billion and counting for AIDS research while other diseases like Lou Gehrig or breast cancer are not given the time of day due to pc..unbelievable.

Pandering to faggotry has reached the level of purposefully polluting the nation’s blood supply ?

Here's an article discussing this same debate in 2010.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/jun/11/panel-votes-keep-restrictions-gay-blood-donations/?page=1

"The policies are intended to reduce the risk of known and unknown infections that could be passed to blood recipients, said Mr. Skinner. The issue of emerging pathogens is real, he added. 'We don’t know what the next HIV will be.'" [Emphasis added]

Good point. Another AIDS is bound to spring from these degenerates.

Fwdude's comment 88 notes that homosexuals have so many horrible diseases (and parasites) that AIDS is just one of the many that can be passed via blood transfusions. Homosexual activists have wanted AIDS to get into the general population for a long time - remember "AIDS isn't a "gay" disease! You're all at risk!!!" and other nonsense? Anal sex is particularly good at spreading AIDS no matter who engages in such perversion. It is the plain truth that the vast majority of AIDS cases are directly or indirectly related to homosexuals.

Not only other diseases, but various permutation of HIV itself, which is always mutating. The HIV of today won’t be the HIV of tomorrow.

So, now they want to spread disease?”

Newsflash: Male homos are the #1 vector for the spread of infectious diseases and the development of antibiotic resistant strains. This is precisely why there are so many questions about homo sex for blood donors.

I did that before my hip replacement surgery. It works well if you have scheduled surgery and have the time, but in an emergency, what can you do?””

You can also get a normal relative to donate.

Finally, the public health issues posed by the #1 infectious disease vector, male homosexuals, not females-—highest incidence of HIV/AIDS, syphilis, drug-resistant gonorrhea, entamoeba histolytica, chlamydia, herpes simplex II, Chancroid, Drug Resistant TB, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis non A & B, just to name a few. Hollywood and the press, of course, never discuss the CDC facts, but if you want to look for yourself the information is in the scientific literature.

I had 2 friends die of AIDS. It is not a pretty site. But when is dieing ever a pretty site.
Oh, I am straight. But they were friends anyway.”

You might be wise to better pick your friends. I knew two queers that died of AIDS and one was also a known pederast—this obsession with young boys is a part of the lifestyle. Beware of sleeping next to a dog with fleas for you are likely to come away with the same ectoparasite.

Agenda 21, depopulate. Cut off water to the bread basket of CA/EPA, taxpayers paying for more abortions for others (add non-reporting of rapes/molestations and deaths due to sepsis on death certs, not abortion), swine flu shots, gardisil killing girls, keep the jails full and spread the hate, the deathcare bill (it wasn’t only Schiavo starved to death who had no terminal disease), seed purchase regulations (and GMOs), bring in migrants... dangerous ones, who rape, gang bang, kill, use up resources/triple populate/all forms of jihad, next will be polygamy (thanks gay ‘marriage’), feminize the boys in school (Title), gay up the military and give sex changes to inmates (at your cost), oh and the viagra courtesy of Hill and Schumer in the past to inmates (more rape).

Now not only are your children forced to think they’re gay, they want to give straights AIDS as well.

We need a huge, secure star chamber folks.

To: liberalism is suicide
Will they finally be satisfied when half the world is queer and the other half is infected with AIDS?

Post of the day.
