Put the rest of the data in.

Or get someone to do it for you.

The figures you speak of are not homosexual men. They are, as the HPA states and I have read many times, a demographic within gay men. A bit like prostitutes are a demographic within women. They represent the number at risk through lifestyle and the other socioeconomic grouping that indicate a high risk of not engaging with healthcare services.

They do not apply to gay men any more than HIV + through substance misuse applies to your Granny. She just happens to be a female, just like the high number of those in that risk group.

Also, the figures are not national even within the hard to reach group they refer to. They refer to an estimated exceedingly small percentage of the population if you check and also, as actual numbers of people on antiretrovirals goes up, the rate decreases and the success story in combating this awful condition within people gets better. Needle sharing and female infection are the main target areas in most health economies.

And we target them based on HPA figures. We are also aware of the fact that ignoring hate isn't being complacent. There are shocking statistics around, and your wish to make them worse by driving the problem underground is as bad as killing them yourself. Except in your pathetic little way, you and your thug friends are.




Why am I saying this? He either knows it anyway or those whose websites he uses conveniently disguise it to impress gullible twats.
