Over a million Americans are estimated to be living with HIV. Worldwide an estimated 33 million people are living with HIV.
If you don't have it, don't get it. Yes, you can live with it now for many long years; but I've watched what other people have to go through, even with the most modern drugs, and it's a hell of a routine, boys. It's not like eating sugar candy; those drugs are powerful, and have all kinds of unhappy side effects. It's not fun, guys. God bless all those who do have to put up with it.
Gay Men's Health Crisis and Project Inform have a lot of good information on all aspects of HIV and AIDS, check 'em out.
And one more tip: If you live in some little redneck town and you aren't comfortable talking to your doctor about stuff like this, Home Access offers the only FDA-approved home testing kits for HIV and Hep C.
