This will please some people here. <http://allafrica.com/stories/200711220304.html>: ----- Begin Quote ----- Tafara-Mabvuku legislator Mr Timothy Mubhawu (MDC) was at it again yesterday when he said Zimbabwe should quarantine all people living with HIV and Aids and see to their demise by denying them life-prolonging anti-retroviral drugs, to curb further spread of the disease. He, however, refuses to go for testing. This is not the first time that the lawmaker has grabbed headlines for the wrong reasons. Mr Mubhawu shocked delegates at a one-day workshop organised to sensitive legislators on HIV and Aids held in Harare when he firmly advocated the segregation of people living with the virus.

Women are not equal to men." ----- End Quote -----  Signature<http://www.hiv-poz.co.uk/> Moible: +447939991519 Martin wrote... > This will please some people here. > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > legislators on HIV and Aids held in Harare when he firmly advocated > the segregation of people living with the virus. I'll admit he's hypocritical for refusing to submit to an HIV test, but he is correct in that segregated quarantine is the only way to prevent spread of the virus. It is also cheaper in the long run, though with a much larger upfront payment to prevent costly new HIV cases in the future. Failure to quarantine means paying tens of thousands of dollars per year to keep HIV patients "alive" longer to infect countless others per year, each one costing tens of thousands of dollars per year to treat, and each one infecting countless others per year. Even Africans aren't that bad at math. >I'll admit he's hypocritical for refusing to submit to an HIV test, >but he is correct in that segregated quarantine is the only way to >prevent spread of the virus.

However, in the short term, it probably wouldn't be a cheaper solution because patients who have been coerced into taking killer HIV drugs would probably seek financial compensation.

They can seek financial compensation when they've compensated everyone they've infected with their virus. I also believe that the HIV virus has mind-altering abilities that causes both extreme sexual promiscuity as well as a delusional belief that the virus doesn't exist and/or is harmless. Similar to the way the rabies virus causes agressive biting, except that HIV is much more sophisticated in that it has the ability to induce specific abstract thoughts (that the virus is harmless and that the antiviral drugs that suppress the virus are dangerous). >>I'll admit he's hypocritical for refusing to submit to an HIV test, >>but he is correct in that segregated quarantine is the only way to [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > because patients who have been coerced into taking killer HIV drugs > would probably seek financial compensation.
