      Want to blow a straight person’s mind? There is a drug called Truvada that a) makes nearly all HIV+ people completely asymptomatic b) prevents them from transmitting HIV c) is a 100% effective prophylactic for HIV d) is available to people with means e) is not for everyone else

      it's absolutely available to people "without means." not only is it covered by most insurance, including medicare, gilead gives it away *for free* to people who can't afford it.

      Insurance requires means. Gilead has given 2.4M bottles to CDC for the 1.1M Americans living with HIV (and the ~359M who don’t have it but could contract it.) They offer a discount to low income people. The discount must be applied for by a doctor. Doctors cost money.

      No, it assumes that you understand that many, many Americans are uninsured or underinsured.

      I think your definition lacks an understanding of what life outside of our world is like, that reasonable observers of this disease, which disproportionately affects these populations, would note.

      yes and no, almost every gay bar i frequent has a bowl of free condoms. truvada, as discussed, is broadly affordable. eventually we're going to have to acknowledge that regardless of resources and information a subset of this population is going to make risky health choices

      Counterpoint: condoms are way less effective against HIV than most people think (and even less effective against other STDs). You can contract HIV even if you're unreasonably careful about using condoms. I know people who have.

      totally agree - don’t at all think condoms are perfect. but truvada has a zero percent chance of preventing antibiotic resistant syphilis or the next HIV.

          "the next HIV" is a super homophobic concept in the first place. Condoms don't really protect against syphilis anyway. It's spread through skin contact, not necessarily genital contact, and can even be spread by sweat.
