WHO says there is *compelling evidence* that male circumcision reduces incidence of HIV by up to 60% - this is only one element however and must be accompanied by health care programs and promotion of safe sexual practiceshttps://www.who.int/hiv/topics/malecircumcision/en/ …

It's based on highly flawed studies riddled with bad science. Also, if you'd care to check the original studies their headline figure of 60% is the meaningless RELATIVE risk reduction. The ABSOLUTE risk reduction from those flawed studies was a statistically insignificant 1.3%.

The moment you post any work by B. Morris you lose all credibility. At the risk of being accused of an ad hominem, the guy is a complete circumcision fanatic whose work is roundly condemned by the medical community for his bad science and constant self-referencing.
