My apologies for the typo. The link should be: http://theconversation.com/australian-law-needs-a-refresher-on-the-science-of-hiv-transmission-68225 Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 11 April 2017 10:39:02 AM

"1,081 new cases of HIV infection were recorded in 2014, compared to 1,028 in 2013 and 1,064 in 2012."
So it's stable. Therefore no need for alarmist hysterics. All viruses spread quickly at first, then stabilise over time. This is exactly what we see here. The only reason for the hysterics is the underlying conditioned "disgust" at male homosexuality, which is impossible to "debate" with. Posted by Shockadelic, Tuesday, 11 April 2017 11:20:01 AM

Dear Shocker,
But it is a debate that needs to be brought out into the open so that so many myths and misconceptions can be corrected. Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 11 April 2017 11:26:37 AM

So true Foxy,
People of a certain ilk are cowards though. They don't want to face what's ugly in themselves. Posted by Zeil, Tuesday, 11 April 2017 2:02:51 PM

Arguably a bigger transmitter of STDs nowadays is the unprotected sex and anal sex that is practiced by heterosexual young people who were taught an abstinence-only approach by conservative Christian parents and schools.

And they’re definitely not Muslim. So let’s just brush that aside and keep our focus on those filthy poofters… Posted by AJ Philips, Wednesday, 12 April 2017 9:31:38 AM

leoj,
The following link explains further:
http://theconversation.com.australian-law-needs-a-refresher-on-the-science-of-hiv-transmission-68225
The chapters on the fact that "HIV is no longer a death sentence,"
and "New approaches to limit HIV transmission" are especially
relevant.
