Sex & Drugs & AIDS & Islam?
A (Muslim) singer from German girl band No Angels has admitted to having unprotected sex with several partners without warning them she was HIV-positive.
Aids campaigners have been critical of the authorities’ handling of Ms Nadja Benaissa’s case, and warned against a rush to criminalise the transmission of HIV, the BBC’s Tristana Moore reports from Berlin. (BBC) (Sounds awfully familiar, what am I thinking of…?)
[She claimed she had been told by doctors that the risk of passing on the virus was “practically zero”.]
Through unprotected sex? Still, US presidents have claimed sillier things, like “islam is peace” … the HSV (Human Stupidity Virus) isn’t selective about who it infects.
Yes there is a problem going on re the military/marines and noone testing the foreign men for diseases like this… I am sure it is going on everywhere but there is an interesting article about a new way to get tested in Africa.
