Yes, Keith, but you said

"The pool of infected heterosexuals is growing by well under 200 per year

And that is wrong.

It increased by well over 4,000 people in 2008 alone. Of that number, 1,300 were UK-acquired infections.

The only thing increasing at 200 per year is the additional number of NEW, UK-ACQUIRED heterosexual infections. That is 200 more, each year than in the previous year. As in the figures you helpfully reprinted today. All those new infections add to the existing pool.

You are confusing these numbers of new UK-acquired infections EACH YEAR, with the size of the total pool. Do you not see that?

There is no support for your 200,000 figure. Whatever increase in population, it will be comprised of gay and straight in the same proportions. So both demographics rise at the same rate; at least that is the only assumption one could possibly draw. But if you want to tie your immigration judgements to your disease judgments then you will also have to accept the 3,000 or more non-UK acquired infections into your comparison. Because they also add to your "...pool of infected heterosexuals..." And then it all falls apart for you.

I was beginning to have some respect for you. Sadly, I was wrong. You are just DESPERATE to twist things around so that HIV appears to be the the responsibility and fault of blacks and gays. When we agreed on stuff - and you agreed the same things with Lox - was that just a provisional agreement while you carried on trying to distort numbers? or do you actually agree those points?

If you agree them, why not just shut up now? What point are you trying to make?

Or you could carry on making a fool of yourself. Either way is fine by me.
