Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
Sorry Keith,

Lets concentrate on what the 500% increase actually shows.

The figures for low domestic heterosexual transmission go back a long way, with a recent and comparatively sudden increase of 500% in the last few years.

That clearly shows a significant change of circumstances.

In addition,

The numbers of domestically infected heterosexuals may have been low, but to describe it as having been infinitesimally low is grossly inaccurate.

On both those bases, your parallel is wrong.


Furthermore, just as your figures have been posted to illustrate that homosexuals proportionately suffer more from HIV, the 500% figure is important as it shows that proportionately, non drug-abusing non African heterosexuals are the fastest rising demographic.


There's cool unbiased statistical analysis for you.
