Except to take you up on the "Cuban" cure, shit for brains.

If you read (if you CAN read) the report on the Cuban model then you will know that caring isolation and treatment of infected people was done at the start of the epidemic.

Isolation works at the start of epidemics. It was deployed at the start of H1N1 flu, amongst others.

Once a disease is generally prevalent. Once it is "out there", isolation is pointless.

The Cuban approach was praised for promoting voluntary testing amongst at-risk groups, active contact tracing and counseling and education of the newly diagnosed.

In particular, the Cuban model was praised for campaigns to de-stigmatise HIV and those most affected by it - so that people would access the prevention resources and testing and treatment and counseling. In particular it was praised for campaigns to deal with and reduce homophobia. That is to say it was praised for dealing with and preventing people like you, Ake.

That is what I have advocated at all times - that sort of caring and proven-to-work outreach and social activism. I have advocated dealing with people like you and the harm that you cause.

Your ideas are loosely based on your fear and your ignorance and your prejudice.

Your ideas are not loosely based on any system that cares for or helps people or that combats the spread of this disease.
