There are 620,000 people in the UK who are infected with HIV. BUT>>>>>
Did you know that of those 620,000, 22,000 are not aware that they have it! Thats 22,000 sexually active people out there, both male and female, who are passing it on because they simply don't know they have it.

Next time you go for a night out, and end up having sex, given these figures, are you going to be prepared by having a condom to hand?

My real question is, Do you think it is time that it was made manditory to have a full sexual health check anually to irradicate this disease?
Do you think it's normal?

I think UK has the finest women And I
love the British accents , I hurts to know that many people are infected , Thats
like in the United States Of Iraq ,
We have so many drug addicts that are
infected with HIV ..So I see where your
coming from !!

P.S. UNITED STATES WILL NEVER KEEP THEIR
NOSE OUT OF OTHER PEOPLES COUNTRIES
SO MANY ISSUES THAT WILL CONTINUE
TO ONLY LORD KNOWS WHEN!
Having sex is not the problem, it is having UN PROTECTED sex that spreads it.
who wants to doink a toothless shrivelTit anyway? 1 out of 3 British wet nurses kill their own children.

and how do you know about this 22000? If they don't know how do you?

life is soo retarded.
Well, there is a thing called confidentiality. Although the medical profesion is aware of their existence, they cannot approach them other than by breaching the code of ethics.
The number is derived from those who have caught it from some one who is not having treatment, not been diagnosed and therefore are un aware. It really isn't too hard to work it out if you have half a brain. There is also a small adjustment made.

no amount of protection is safe enough to have sex with a person with hiv.sorry but that is just the way it is.the only way to stop the spread of hiv is to stop any activity that can transmit the disease.
100 out of every 100 people die some day. Maybe we should eliminate life to save people from ever dying.
As far as the medical field goes. Yes, there is definetly confidentiality. In my opinion everyone should have a physical every year, just to be on the the safe side. With so many std's out there, Why aren't ppl using protection? We are not invincible! Working in the medical profession, I'm amazed at the number of individuals that don't practice safe sex. It's ridiculous the number of children that are concieved let alone all of the diseases that are spread. It only takes one time!! Think about your family and friends it is worth a few seconds of pleasure? Do you want to give a life of heartache to others?
So why say as slackass that no amount of protection blah blah, and then under this one go against it entirely. You know there are a lot of youngsters use this shytie site so why try to confuse the very ones that need stable, sensible advice on the subject?
@: nearly
Well nearly, slack has seemed to have convinced you that I'm him. I'm sure he finds great pleasure in having done so. If you look at my profile, I would thinks it's obvious that I don't even choose the same posts as he does. Other that last night. If there was a way I could prove I'm not him I would. But as far as this site goes, pple seem to have been creating multiple accounts for quite some time from what I understand.
@: nearly
Nearly i dont think realitychecks is Slack i have read some of here posts and i think she is a good sincere person in the health care field.
HER
Don't you think it is kinda weird "she" has stopped posting since the fracass a couple of weeks ago?
you understand that 22000 is not anywhere near a third of 620000!
one question if they dont know they have it how the fuck do you know? its just another poll made up by the goverment to scare everyone grow up, plus pussys worth it
