One of my dearest friends is HIV positive, and he wasn't even "sleeping around" when it was contracted... he was in what he thought was a monogamous relationship (with a man), but his partner had an affair with somebody who was positive.
It's really sad to think about, but luckily he's doing great on the meds - all of his counts were healthy at his last checkup, and he takes pretty good care of himself otherwise. Thankfully it's no longer a death sentence, at least not in countries with decent healthcare, so I'm hoping he will live a nice, long life.
Our friend also is a gay male, don't want to ask him the details of how he got it. Just do not want to go there.
Saw him 2 weeks ago at a party for some friends of ours, and he looks remarkably well for what he has gone thru.
The meds i have to say do help, thank goodness for them.
I hope your friend as well as our does live a long healthier life.
Unbelievable. He also says that homosexuality is "glorified", gay kids aren't bullied, and that kids can become gay just by telling them about homosexuality.
This guy certainly lives up to the stereotype of today's Neanderthal Republican. Maybe we should expect to see him running for President in 2016.
So what is next for this idiot? The world is flat? Evolution is fake? The Sun revolves around the Earth?
It really doesn't surprise me since "Science" to Conservatives is the "Devil's Playground"!
Having known 5 people who have died from AIDS since the 1980s only one was Gay.
I currently have friend who has been HIV positive since 1997 and is in good health. He takes very good care of himself and his biggest concern now is that he's diabetic and needs to lose some weight.
Some people on this board need a sex ed class as well!

Not only that, the meds can lower your viral load to such low levels that you cannot transmit the virus. It really is a remarkable advance, and having a huge impact on lowering rates of new infections all over the world.
Is it any wonder that you live in Mississippi with that comment like that?
Mississippi has nothing to do with this subject. I can quote Thomas Jefferson when he wrote sodomites are more dangerous to society than a man having sex with a cow.
We were told in an aids briefing the disease sprung to humans when a homosexual had sex with a monkey. The class was on a army base.
It just goes to show the world that stupidity has no boundaries. Not only can certain historically animal diseases be passed by a bite but as with the case in China with Bird Flu jump species through close contact.
I find it very hard to believe that any primate would have the poor taste or lack of good judgement to have sex with a human.
It's so heart warming to see how a well read, educated, up to date on the facts person can represent the state of TN. To think I almost moved there, phew glad I didnt.

We were told in a class aids began when a homosexual had sex with a monkey. It is well known.
As it has been explained in a post above there is SIV and HIV. The two are similar in some respects but they are not the same viruses.
What kind of class did you attend that says a "homosexual" had sex with a monkey? What proof is there that a "homosexual" had sex with a animal?
