Have you ever gotten a non-emergency medical treatment so beneficial that it was worth getting HIV in exchange? Do you know anyone who has? I wish we had medicine that amazing, but it doesn't exist. In theory, such a treatment is possible, but in reality, they're just making everything worse.

I really doubt that people who can't afford a clean syringe go to the doctor for non-emergency treatments.

Then you don't believe the article in the first place.

HIV is much more prominent in homosexual men, not sure what your point is.

What is your point?

That engaging in a known risky activity is dangerous, and people shouldn't be surprised if they get affected if they willingly put themselves in such a situation.

Who are you talking about? It sounds as if you are saying that people with HIV deserve to be quarantined.
