Don T, re your repeated assertion that 96% msms are not infected.
According to HPA
In 2007,    The prevalence of HIV (both diagnosed and undiagnosed infections) among MSM aged 15-44 was estimated to be 8.5% (range 7.0-10.5%)
""

And your 8.5 percent is based on age groups 15 to 44.

We have a population now, in which there are more people over 65 than there are under sixteen.

So you take a figure based on nineteen years out of an expected average eighty one, and claim it applies to the whole grouping.

That is total bollocks Keith and I suspect that you know it, and still cynically misrepresent the situation.

Your statements lack any credibility when you insist upon cooking the books to make a point.

Don T.
