^Awesome news!
If "awesome" means: ALWAYS USE A CONDOM in tandem with any other adopted preventative measures.
^ That's certainly not what I meant ;)
^ That's like asking why someone hates Diet Coke
Seems like not many people here care but u about this. I dont think it will be as big as u think or wish.
^ Let's revisit this in five years. The fact is most people don't know about it
I don't get West, if there was an epidemic of condoms being unable to prevent HIV I could understand such a hard push. Condoms have been excellent and if person feels the need to bareback. Then its best in a committed monogamous relationship where both parties have been tested. Other than that this is being pushed for people who have a history of high risk sexual activities. With the side effects being liver damage, why is a person really taking this drug?
That is why Michelle is right, people won't care about it because there is not as much as a need for it as people think there should be one.
^ You can't actually be serious?
50,000 new HIV cases a year. Every year. In the USA. This isn't an epidemic????!!!!!!!!! Are you fucking insane???????????? Condoms, in perfect use, do prevent HIV. We've been at this for 30 years. A condoms only strategy to combating HIV simply DOES NOT WORK. If this drug had come out 20 years ago it would be heralded as a miracle.
You people make me fucking puke. You can choose to continue to live in denial if you want, but what makes me ill is that your Puritanical and unscientific judgmental attitudes are what's keeping more people from knowing about this miracle drug.
Truvda, in perfect use, doesn't prevent HIV either. The effectiveness of any preventative measure decreases exponentially over the duration of use. A drug that is 95% effective over one year's time is only 90% effective over a two year period. For a period of twenty years the effectiveness drops to 0.95 to the twentieth power; i.e. 36% effective over a twenty year period. If you're in a long term relationship with a partner who is infected, you'd be a fool not to use every preventative measure at your disposal that doesn't carry the risk of deleterious side-effects with long term use...that means CONDOMS.
