I have talked to several friends (some of whom are AIDS counsellors in Canada and USA) and was told that many poz people usualy think that once they are HIV+, they can lose all inhibitions and do all the bareback sex they want. WRONG! Those who think so will merely open themselves to other strains of HIV as well as other infections like Hepatitis B and C, syphilis, etc. Also, some feel that as being HIV+ is no longer a terminal condition but a chronic one, they can have unsafe sex all they want with anyone they fancy - cos after all, the condition IS treatable with HAART and stuff.. This is unlike how it was in the 80s when being infected with the virus would almost immediately mean a death sentence. But I personally think prevention is better than treatment (cos there is no cure for HIV) And the worst thing is, was told my friends in both Singapore and Malaysia that there are still lots of guys in the region that WANT bareback sex despite all the education about the dangers of STIs.
