Kaimani Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 In South Africa the myth that sex with a virgin will cure one of HIV/AIDS still prevails which is why infants and children are raped. The use of condoms by black Africans in South Africa is very low, as far as I'm aware. I'm not sure about other African countries. This is not helped by the idiot president having sex with prostitutes then taking a shower post-coitus as a preventative measure. still lower than it should be but much better than it was. and the incidence of rape for aids cure is going down rapidly. you're right, though, some nut who happens to be president does that and the publicity it gains makes it look worse than it is. new case are falling. we'll get there.

Kaimani Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Success of stopping the transmission of AIDS with condom use = 90% Success of stopping the transmission of AIDS via abstinence = 100% this, sorry to say, is a non statement. if you find 100 people not having sex, obviously they'll all not get HIV from sex coz they're not having sex. truth is, people do have sex. and though the church etc preach people say they listen, but for the most part don't. there's no denying that condoms are doing much more to stop the spread than abstinence.
