If commerce laws were applied equally, the "knowing is beautiful" ads for
HIV testing would have to bear a disclaimer, just like cigarettes:
"Warning: This test will not tell you if you're infected with a virus. It
may confirm that you are pregnant or have used drugs or alcohol, or that you've
been vaccinated; that you have a cold, liver disease, arthritis, or are
stressed, poor, hungry or tired. Or that you're African. It will not tell
you if you're going to live or die; in fact, we really don't know what
testing positive, or negative, means at all."----- The Hidden Face of HIV -
