To the uninformed or devious guest.
From PHE.........."Gay, bisexual and other MSM
•HIV still disproportionally affects gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men. The number of MSM diagnoses was a record high (3250/6000). This approximates to an adult prevalence of 59 per 1,000. In London, an estimated 1 in 8 MSM are HIV positive compared to 1 in 26 outside London"

This means that in 2013 the latest figures available state that the total of new HIV infections was 6000....of this total, 3250 we amongst MSM.

The total of new infections amongst males was 4840....of this total 3250 were MSM.

Homosexuals make up 1.5% of the adult population of the UK, accrording to the Office of National Statistics.
