Health,

1.) you said “You don’t read my posts or you don’t understand them! Hiv is a virus -therefore anybody who contacts this virus -gets it. HIV became endemic in the 80’s, despite your denial.”

I’m guessing you meant “an epidemic” here the word “endemic” doesn’t make sense in that context. AIDS was first clinically diagnosed in certain populations in the 80s, it (or the HIV virus that causes it) had been circulating in the general population for decades. That’s besides the point that to do what you propose the government would have had to force everyone who had used an intravenous drug or touched the body fluids of someone who had used an intravenous drug since about 1970 to submit to a quarantine/testing for it even have a chance of being effective. That’s not very realistic at all.

2.) If you cannot prevent the Virus from coming here you shouldn’t waste resources trying to do so. You should try doing something that has a chance of having an effect.

P.S. Look up the word “endemic”
