The additional health problems, known as comorbidities, that people with HIV experience fall into six clusters, according to an analysis of two groups of Western European individuals that skewed older, aidsmap reports.
Presenting their findings at the 2019 Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) in Seattle, researchers analyzed data from two cohort studies to parse patterns behind the existence of comorbidities among HIV-positive individuals.

- Cardiovascular disease, including angina, coronary bypass surgery, heart attack, heart failure, high blood pressure, peripheral vascular disease and end-stage kidney disease
- Sexually transmitted infections, including gonorrhea, lymphogranuloma venereum, chlamydia and hepatitis C virus
- Mental health, including depression, anxiety and panic attack
- Cancers, including blood cancers, skin cancer and solid organ cancer
- Metabolic conditions, including abnormal blood lipids, lipodystrophy and high blood pressure
- Chest and other infections, including cytomegalovirus, pneumonia, dizziness and vertigo, asthma and bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and chest infection.
Strictly from a personal health perspective, or personal cost perspective, or from a personal mental health perspective, homosexuality and lesbianism should be actively discouraged and never promoted.
Are the queer propagandists still spewing the lie that homos, on the whole, are just as healthy as normal people?
AIDS: The Final Solution to homosexuality.
Really...is it worth it?
To any rational person’s thinking, AIDS should have been over decades ago, as much as we know about it. But homosexuals are not rational people.
We poured billions into research for meds to constrain a nearly 100% preventable disease; and, during the same time period, made very little progress in abating congestive hear failure (CHF) which is almost 100% NON-preventable.
Something sucks.
This is a pretty broad variety of ailments that may be associated with HIV. A layman could have predicted cancer comorbidities, but the others are not as obvious.
In the West, you can reduce your risk of HIV about 80% if you can avoid two activities: gay sex, and using drugs by sharing dirty needles. What other disease can be 80% avoided by avoiding just two activities? (In third world countries, heterosexual sex is a much greater risk factor for AIDS than in the US and Europe.)
Risk/Cost Markets:
When an insurance company learns a person rides a motorcycle, he pays more.
When they learn a person smokes, he pays more.
When they learn a person frequents San Francisco Kamikaze Parties, he pays not even ONE CENT more.
WE are subsidizing them.
Over 10% of US male homoz have more than 1,000 partners.
Homos SHOULD pay more insurance...they have more health problems...
yeah whatever, it’s a fag thing..
Most of that is probably from side-effects of the treatment.
They think it is, or they wouldn't be doing it.
We went from treating it as a mental disorder to the enlightened doctors apologizing for treating it as such.
If the shrinks would have just not caved to the pressure from the thug fags that swarmed and violently harassed them the year before the new dsm-3 was released in the early 1970s to reclasify homosexuality as a mental illness...
It’ll take about 20 years, maybe 15 to play out, then the blame-storming, etc
Not exactly breaking news.
I found no mention of what I would have expected: colon cancer, IBS, etc.
Those can kill you.
What do you call a lifestyle that engages in life threatening risks....it seems to be more than risk taking....it seems fatalistic and depressed behaviour...as in...well..I am gonna die anyway and I don’t care if I die...is that rational? As with other matters...we see disturbed behaviour characterized as personal choice.....example: body implants...or mutilation of genitals
