AIDS

[Guest guest]

>>I would expect that in North

America and Europe, that this so-called infectious virus would cause

AIDS equally in men and women and move outside the original and still

the main risk groups, homosexuals and intravenus drug users.

So, Chi, are you just utterly impervious to reason*, or do you not know that

HIV is not airborne? It's fragile and survives only in some bodily fluids.

Those with no behavioral, occupational or medical exposure have zero chance of

contracting the virus, barring freak accident - and this is precisely what we do

see. What we don't see is people with otherwise compromised immune systems and

no other risk factors testing positive for the virus or developing the array of

co-occurring illnesses characterized as AIDS.

And thanks, , for mentioning smallpox. I've never seen anyone taking

Chi's position attempt to explain that, and hope he will, for the entertainment

value.
