Royston, you are resorting to deception to cover your tracks.
Your credibility sinks even further.
"you and Lox argued the toss (no pun intended) over STI rates "

No we did not.
He referred to them and I let it go. (I was determined to establish the truth about AIDS first.)
No one has justified your claims about STIs.
I say they can not be justified.

You quote the first half of my sentence, but make up the second half!
Why not quote the whole sentence? I only said it he same day!
Who is going to be fooled?

Here it is again.
Those early posts of Ake and GFS (it was only Ake in your first attempted excuse!) are robustly put, but they only reference the increased risk of infection which you acknowledge.

We both agree that MSMs have a higher risk, don't we?

Don T, thank you for that figure but it is no help.
Where is it from?
Is it stable or rising?
What is the corresponding figure for MSMs?
