CDC: Homosexual men account for 61% of new HIV infections but only 2% of population
Life Site News ^ | August 18, 2011 | PATRICK B. CRAINE

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.

Lots of those AA men are coming out of prison after subscribing to a notion of “if he’s fellating me, he’s the gay one not me.”

Once out of prison, it’s screw everything with a pulse. Some of these guys know they have the HIV, others don’t. Some don’t care.

Many women who are enamored with the whole “thug” persona are putting themselves at great personal risk and any subsequent partners they have.

Bingo. I was wondering how long it would take for this to be brought up. By definition though, the military and Red Cross will not except any blood from anybody who has had homosexual sodomy or used drugs with needles.

That’s the way I heard it...AIDS lay as a dormant disease in primates then somebody in the bush must have got it on with some ape...transmitted human to human until it got out of the country with a gay flight attendant who was promiscuous in the SoCal area...

Have a countdown until Barney Frank and NAMBLA make an announcement that the CDC is under the sway of Tea Party Terrorists...10...9...8...7...6...

That doesn't seem fair, does it? You can save the homosexual with your blood, but he can only condemn you with his.

I'd think when folks figure this out that it would be a huge morale problem.

And to say we could always bring in fresh blood with resupply is forgetting that we haven't been in a major naval warfare where battle groups become isolated.

Some will say that it's all ok because there are HIV tests, but the truth is that the time from infection to infectiousness is only a matter of weeks. In other words, Sailor A could be tested and could be clean prior to deployment. If at any point after deployment he becomes infected on any liberty in any port, he is able to spread the HIV virus just a few weeks later.

And have we mentioned the extreme promiscuity of homosexuals....nearly 100% reporting multiple partners per year. Some report 100's per year.

We haven't yet gotten into the issue of other blood-borne pathogens carried at an extremely high rate by homosexuals. They don't give you a pre-deployment hepatitis test, do they?

You can give first aid to a bleeding homosexual but it is a danger to you. A bleeding homosexual gives you first aid and it's a danger to you. A transfusion from a homosexual is a danger to you.

In addition to being a huge health negative, it is also going to be a huge morale negative.

You can help with 100% of the heavy lifting. They can't.

Yes it is a filthy, unhealthy, dangerous lifestyle. As regards testing, unless things have changed a service member is tested once every two years...I think on even birth years, somebody can correct me. Certainly NOBODY would want a loved one to get a blood transfusion from a population with large numbers of homosexual male donors.

It's the activity rather than the inclination that makes the blood potentially unsafe to use. A man who considered himself "straight" but had engaged in sex with another male could potentially be infected, whereas a man with homosexual inclinations who had never acted on them would not be potentially infected. So I think the Red Cross questionnaire has it right.

They also try to exclude men who have had sex with prostitutes (because of the danger of infection) but no questionnaire is going to catch everyone, even if everyone answers truthfully--a man could be infected from a girlfriend who earlier had an affair with an infected bisexual man. In the past there may have been an effort to exaggerate the extent of heterosexual transmission of the AIDS virus, but it does happen.

>>> she came down with mumps and had to return home. He had to go get her cause they would not allow her on a plane to come back. I told him to have her say she had AIDS and they’d allow her on a plane. Bet me.

I’m sure you are correct. They’d let her on the airplane if she only had aids.

Now can you figure out on your own why your remark was so dumb? Or do you need a hint that the spread of the mumps virus by airborne droplets and casual skin contact is a different mode then the spread of the aids virus.

You're sick.

SIV jumped species, becoming HIV, because of Africans hunting primates as bushmeat.

Nope, I'm normal, queers are sick.

I don't give a rats ass how it started originally, it's spread by queers.

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

Same thing.

What about the dozens of other infectious diseases that male homos have captured the pride of a #1 ranking? Syphilis, gonorrhea, ............................

All because gays cannot be bothered to wear a condom.””

Many of the infections agents (at least a dozen associated with male homo behavior) are spread as a result of fecal consumption during rimming and felching operations. Homos apparently can’t find a condom to fit their mouths. Disgusting but true.

Sad story is, back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, there was the crowd of kids which enjoyed building forts or rope bridges, or whatever else your teenage intellect could come up with, including perhaps a little bonfire in a friend’s backyard. It was fun, and involved some intellectual taxing at the same time. Then even then, there was the crowd of potheads and hippies that were a little notorious for doing their free love and drug use. But then as time rolled around, from the late 80s, early 90s, and now the early 21st century, you saw an ever increasing number of kids who just had to spend all day with their video games, drugs, and sex, and such, I don’t know or can’t say, but it has become less the world I grew up with. Even sadder thing was, there are perhaps less and less suitable people for kids who were at my age of finishing my Bachelor’s who can find a decent person to marry, much less are ready to for various reasons, or perhaps could have decided to marry but chosen the weak imitation called cohabitation. Frankly, if so many people had chosen real marriage over simply cohabitating with your girlfriend/boyfriend, we would have way more support for traditional marriage over what we have now.

What’s even more sad is when I have to take a look at the kind of material the younger generation gets while they are just in high school nowadays, in my time as a teen, it was way more mild, and closer as well to recognizing that there’s a proper place for some things. Back in my time, they even got away with the explanation that puberty was about the development of what could eventually allow you to become a successful mother or father sometime, sad what plenty of it comes to, sad that plenty of young people who are barely into young adulthood or teen years are getting into sex, when there’s still a long life ahead of you.

My experience was this. People will hound answers out of you as to where you stand regarding homosexuality, it happens at work, it happens when some person attending church might ask you after mass (my own experience), and it can happen at work too, it can even happen to our own kids at school, as far as I can figure. Even so much as refusing an answer pretty much meant that you were against them. With or against them is how they run, and I it’s sad to think that some people cannot get that part right. Frankly, this is an issue where we either all fall separately, or we can all get together, draw our lines, and all be in for it together.
