The closest I've had come to dealing with HIV/AIDs was doing my EMT clinicals. While the prospect of getting infected was scary enough, if you didn't follow protocol you could actually be denied workers compensation as well, which of course would mean your employers insurance wouldn't be forced to cover it as well. Scary ****, that.
Anyways, why does there seem to be a consensus that people in the gay community continue to indulge in risky behavior because they're ignorant of HIV/AIDs? Couldn't it be they're taking an informed risk?
