I'm stopping by here every now and again.

In the event that Keith stops banging on about all the things on which we agree - mostly African straight HIV, probably won't be a generalised academic, etc etc etc and addresses some of the more recent issues, then there might be a further discussion to be had.

We could try and draw him back to how he leapt around like an angry chimp laughing at me for advocating general and school-based education in spite of what de Cock was REPORTED AS SAYING.

As he was reported in the article to have said - in summary - that general education and school-based education in the UK would not be beneficial, and was not reported making a comment anywhere about education in other places; so it follows that the CORRECTION which said "In all settings..." such programs and removal of stigma and other barriers are essential to HIV prevention, asserts his advocacy for these measures in the UK.

You see, Keith, I will continue to read these stories and then apply my knowledge, intellect and experience to them and I will come to my own conclusions. You are too witless to do anything other than lap up the things that you like the sound of. Either that or you are a liar - you are intelligent enough to know that what you say is wrong, yet you say it anyway.

On the BMJ piece, we all know what we agree on, Keith, no point you reposting it. What about the assertions that you don't like, but the BMJ make nonetheless?

On the scientific paper from Edinburgh, I don't claim to understand the genetic heritage of HIV subtypes well enough to comment other than to say that the abstract and summaries are clear in talking about the operation of sexual networks as a driving factor in the disease and also variant subtypes in different networks of transmission.

It is just an example of the complexity of the epidemic that you could have found, had you chosen to do.

There are now so many points on the table over the last few days that you are ignoring in favour of repeating all the same stuff on which we have largely agreed. Until you calm down and get up to date, there isn't a lot of point to this.
