Dear Gay Men.......

I have an announcement.

Please sit down when you read this.  I don't want to be responsible for you falling down and injuring yourself.









HIV is not gone.






Repeat.




HIV is not gone.







Truvada.  Better treatment options.  Viral load reduction.  These are examples of PROGRESS.  These are not cures.

These can ASSIST people with HIV living longer and healthier lives.

These can ASSIST the prevention of negative men from contracting HIV.

But HIV has not gone.

So let us stop playing the game called "IGNORANCE IS BLISS" because it isn't working.

People are still being infected.

People are still dying.

Thank you.

If only these youngsters had to go through what we went endured in the 80's. Watching your friends die all around you. Memorials and funerals every other week. That has a way of getting the message through.
Peace,
Stan
