Younger New York City Men Getting HIV
NEW YORK, 13 (UPI)
Preliminary New York health department data show HIV infection is increasing among young men who have sex with other men.
New HIV diagnoses among men who have sex with men under age 30 have increased by 33 percent in the past six years. New diagnoses have doubled among men who have sex with men ages 13 to19, while declining by 22 percent among older men who have sex with men.
“We are very concerned about the increase in HIV among young men who have sex with men,” Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, health commissioner for New York City, said in a statement. “We’re headed in the wrong direction. Unless young men reduce the number of partners they have, and protect themselves and their partners by using condoms more consistently, we will face another wave of suffering and death from HIV and AIDS.”
The HIV data parallel a New York City health department report showing a sharp increase in syphilis cases among men who have sex with men.
Syphilis and HIV are a dangerous combination, because syphilis genital sores
make HIV easier to spread and HIV lowered immunity makes syphilis harder to treat, Frieden said.

When are we gay men going to stop playing a role in this ritual…this death cult?
This article is a crock, because there’s no such thing as an HIV test.
These young men now have the misfortune of believing that they harbor some mystical virus that wields all the powers of viruses and bacteria combined, and that it will kill them unless they submit to a regimen of expensive, body-deforming, liver-destroying drugs.
They’re paying society’s price for their sexuality. Nothing more. And the rest of us gay men allow this hideous ritual to continue.
HIV testa are a fraud. They detect NOTHING specific. All HIV diagtnosis are a fraud. A dath sentece for gay men.
AIDS is a Death Cult nothing more. The price some gay men are made to pay just so others can high ride political carrers and benefit from all sorts of financial kick-backs.
When will some gay men stop trying to kill other gay men?
Time to wake up boys and start to fight back. Stop the death rituals and the sacrifices. It’s all a big lie and they can’t be allowed to milk this for ever and ever and ever and ever…
Mr. Traynor,
I think it’s time to quit sending our fellow gay men to their pharmaceutical Auschwitz’s.
Time to take a hard look at what we call “AIDS”, and stop playing our role in this sacrificial death ritual.

Ah, that old age cult that HIV has become. It’s down right pathetic that gay men still step right on up for those bogus, non-specific HIV tests. Alas, it just might be that some of us are seeing right through the lies of the past 25 something years and are taking a stand against the genocide we’ve been witnessing all these years. It is not time for a complete rethinking?
