CDC: Homosexual men account for 61% of new HIV infections but only 2% of population

WASHINGTON, D.C., August 18, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control has estimated that homosexual men account for 61% of the new HIV infections in the United States while they only amount to about 2% of the country’s population.

Earlier this month, the CDC released estimates for HIV infections from 2006-2009 showing that new infections remained stable at around 50,000 for each of the four years.

Homosexual men accounted for 29,300 of the estimated 48,100 new infections in 2009, and homosexual men aged 13 to 29 accounted for 27% of the new cases.

The only group in which new HIV infections is increasing, they say, is young homosexual men – driven by an alarming increase in infections from African Americans.  They estimated that the new infections among young black homosexual men increased 48 percent in the period of 2006-2009 (from 4,400 HIV infections in 2006 to 6,500 infections in 2009).

The study also revealed that almost 20% of homosexual men have HIV, while nearly half of those who do are unaware of it.

This one statement ought to be stomach-emptying to any sane individual with even a vestige of conscience left:

Homosexual men accounted for 29,300 of the estimated 48,100 new infections in 2009, and homosexual men aged 13 to 29 accounted for 27% of the new cases.

Men?! Thirteen years of age?!!! This is the direct work of the diabolical "It Gets Better" campaign. Dan Savage should be arrested and executed for encouraging sexual abuse and murder of children. Yes, I'm dead serious.

The liberal culture views homosexuality as another way to control population control plus plenty of liberals come from culture where homosexuality is asserted as a form of power.

Realistically it does not control population growth,homosexuality is likely to destroy the social fabric of nations.Once people realize they’re likely to get by from homosexual dalliances,more then likely they will decide to start spawning kids left and right just to keep getting ahead.

If they will trade their flesh,why not the flesh of their children?

I’m sure these facts are included in the new GLBT school curriculum.

Those elementary students in California should have all the facts.

All because gays cannot be bothered to wear a condom.

So you and I need to pony up major money for research and “education”, etc.

Meanwhile, it is smokers who are roundly considered pariahs.

HIV isn’t a homosexual disease, it is a pervert’s disease.

Someone can be Homosexual, and choosy about their sexual partners and not catch HIV/AIDS.

However the way the culture has been broken if you are gay it is almost “expected” of you to go out and have as much anonymous sex as you can possibly have with am emphasis on “if it feels good do it” instead of choosing your partner wisely.

Because of the way the “Gay culture” is pushed by the mainstream culture it is a recipe for their own extinction as these new results show.

Monogamous Gay relationships these days are are more rare than an albino elephant. This is due to the liberal attitudes taken towards relationships and how the gay community was an very early adopter of these attitudes.

“The only group in which new HIV infections is increasing, they say, is young homosexual men ... among young black homosexual men increased 48 percent in the period of 2006-2009 (from 4,400 HIV infections in 2006 to 6,500 infections in 2009).”

I hope their community and their churches try to reach these young men as this is a behavior and self-worth problem. Reckless sex and mindless gratification will kill you in body and soul.

1. Didn't they say teaching safe sex in school would help, then why the increase in youth?

2. Scary part about this is when these younger boy grow out of their perversion they will hook up with girls later in life.

“Who says they are 2% of the population? How was that determined?”

The CDC added up all new cases purchases’ of Judy Garland CD’s and divided them by the total of all the Ethel Merman recordings in existence.

Plus sales of The Weather Girls' "It's Raining Men."

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.

Leviticus 20:13

If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.

2 Chronicles 7:14

If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

To think that a measly 2% of the population can cause such a stink in our country.

I'm as confused about the article as the homosexuals are confused about themselves. 61% of new infections were caused by homosexual men. How did the other 39% become infected. From the toilet seat. Don't all infections from this disease originate from homosexual men. Also, the 2% of population is gay men is way to high based on a recent study where approx. 1.9% considered themselves, gay, lesbian or transgender. That would make the men about 1% or less.
