Less than one in a million

Caucasian heterosexual women (even including I..V. drugs users) represent
an 'AIDS' risk of only about ONE IN A MILLION or less. In California last
year there were only 79 cases.

HIV Testing Among Racial/Ethnic Minorities --- United States, 1999

Of the 774,467 AIDS cases reported to CDC during June 1981--December 2000
(2), blacks and Hispanics accounted for 56% of cases, although they
represented 25% of the U.S. population during this period. In 2000, the
incidence of adult and adolescent AIDS cases per 100,000 population was
74.2 for blacks, 30.4 for Hispanics, and 7.9 for whites.

Of the 7.9% Caucasian cases only about 7% are said to be from heterosexual
activity. (Source: - CDC)
That translates to 0.55 per 100,000 or: -
JUST ONE AIDS CASE IN EVERY 200,000 Caucasian heterosexuals.

Hardly a spectacular figure.Lightning deaths in America kill 75 to 100
people a year.
BUT WOMEN ARE ONLY A TINY PERCENTAGE OF THAT VERY SMALL FIGURE

Caucasian heterosexual women (even including I..V. drugs users) represent
an 'AIDS' risk of only about ONE IN A MILLION or less. In California last
year there were only 79 cases.

IN REAL TERMS A ZERO RISK!
These figures beg the question is 'AIDS' caused by an std or by poverty.
Could African American and Hispanic women really be having so much more
sex? A graph of 'AIDS' fits perfectly with a graph of poverty in America
but in no way reflects sexual activity.

Where is the trick?

These are CDC figures.

Explain or admit the truth.

According to <http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/stats/hasr1302/table11.htm>,
2,040 white non-Hispanic adult or adolescent women (WNHAAW) developed
AIDS in the US in 2001.  If the female population of the US is about
150,000,000, that's about 13 per million.

According to <http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/stats/hasr1302/table12.htm>,
1,934 WNHAAW developed HIV but not AIDS -- about 13 per million,
for just the year 2001.  The cumulative number of women with HIV but
not AIDS was 10,701 -- about 71 per million.

All of these figures are somewhat larger than your ONE IN A MILLION,
and all of them are underestimates because I've been dividing by
the female population; the population of white non-Hispanic adult or
adolescent women is less than that.

How long will you go on reposting things you know are wrong?

Of course as usual no response from Paul when the math is to simple for him
to misrepresent or just plain lie about..........................
