Because it's Africa. If you spoke about AIDS in their bathrooms... It would be a different story.

They conclude: "a growing body of evidence points to unsafe injections and other medical exposures to contaminated blood" as an explanation for the majority of the spread of the epidemic. "This finding has major ramifications for current and future HIV control programmes in Africa".

Sounds like what happened in Romania and other parts of Eastern Europe.

Meanwhile the focus on anti-aids drugs as a fix seems somewhat...myopic.
