America's first gay president is pleased. Fire up the teleprompter.
Of course, the child is not promiscuous. How did the child become HIV+? Is the blood supply contaminated?
Here in the States Gays and drug users >chose< their lifestyle and accept the risks and consequences.
It is, after all, a preventable disease here.
A person who gets it (or got it) from a blood transfusion is completely innocent.
The family was traveling in Europe when the child suffered an injury requiring a blood transfusion. Some Western European countries are surprisingly not very good at screening their blood donors. In this case, it was the Netherlands.
It is supposed to be very rare (if not impossible) for anyone here in the States to get it through a blood transfusion. Sounds like this is not true?
And that would make the people who contaiminate the blood supply murders. Unfortunately, they'd probably succumb before you could try them.
Homosexuals are the new protected class of the Left so the cure for their fully preventable disease got tons of money—money that could have gone to illnesses that are not the result of unsanitary depravity.
All the billions thrown at aids—several real diseases could have been cured with that kind of money.As far as I am concerned,homosexual activists have oceans of blood on their hands.
Part of the problem is “collateral infections” - someone who doesn’t know their partner’s other activities who gets infected, such as the wife of a cheating husband or vice versa.
It’s a long and nasty chain, and the end victims don’t necessarily need to have even had the opportunity to choose risky behavior.
Should we not try to help them?
Also, blood screening? Not 100% accurate everywhere.
Darn! What a sad story.
My first reaction is sadness and then anger!
See post 22, it wasn’t State-side. That said, even in the US there are isolated incidents of this happening.
That is terrible!
It is all a game of the odds — the more partners you have the increased chance that you'll get it. And if you hang out with the wild crowd or your friends hang out with the wild crowd, then your chances are increased of getting it.
Better to be monogamous. I can confidently say that I won't get it. My chances are very slim that I might get it from a blood transfusion. I am not worried.
If I was into the bathouse scene or liked prostitutes, then I'd be worried.
However, I do pity the poor innocent person who gets it. And I loathe the person who gave it to him or her.
Then I am not worried. I can confidently say that I won’t get AIDS.
I am much more likely to die from Cancer or Heart Disease.
Heck, getting struck by lightning is probably more likely.

Well, with those numbers, they are going to have to find a way to streamline marriage and divorce to where both of them take about 5 minutes each. I read somewhere that they used to do that for black people back in the Jim Crow days because they couldn’t afford to pay a lawyer for a divorce, sooo the couple would go to the judge’s office, say “I Divorce You” 3 times while turning around in a circle, and they were divorced. Maybe they can bring this back for gay people???
JOhnson gave up the anal sex and destructive lifestyle.
HIV causes AIDS, but also needs drug use, bacteria injected through tears in the ass, etc, to wear the body down to become AIDS.
No argument that promiscuity massively increases the odds of getting this disease, but your partner needs to be monogamous as well and as we all know that doesn’t always happen.
It’s also worth noting that if we crack HIV, we can also crack a number of other retrovirii, some of which cause cancer and are transmitted through unclear means.
“That’s nice, but I have a friend whose child is a hemophiliac. Who now has HIV. The child is 8. Are you honestly saying that the child has been promiscuous?”
There has not been a recorded case of an hemophiliac in the USA becoming infected with HIV by blood transfusion since 1986.
In fact, since 1999, new technology has allowed clotting factors to be genetically engineered without the use of blood donations, so this is a non-issue.

1. I disagree. It is the basic rule of any infectious disease. Maybe a quarantine is in order for those who are infected. That is what the do when there is a serious outbreak of any other virus. For some reason, not HIV/AIDS. I wonder why? Yes, many don't know that they are infected. But those who do know that they are infected?
2. With limited monetary resources, the money spent on AIDS here in the States could be used on more serious diseases — that are NOT preventable. Then again, it is a serious problem in Africa. Who knows.
Psst - wasn’t the US.
Why worry about Marriage at all.
