Nationally, over 15% of “men who have sex with men” are HIV+. Or, at least, diagnosed HIV+. Personally, I think the real figure is much higher, particularly among promiscuous urban ones.

And each HIV+ needs hugely expensive antiviral drugs, for the rest of his life, to keep the virus down to survivable levels. Just the drugs cost $39K per year.

This was the reason for Obamacare, so that this particular condition would get coverage.
