Patient ONE was gay flight attendant from Canada. # 3 ) was mostly eliminated but in this case # 5) to which many in the adult industry belong ( gay or not) still are reponsible. Political correctness or not.
Just to remind you also, that Kaposi Sarcoma associated with primary HIV infection is almost 100 % incidental to homosexual males ( except the Sub Saharan variety).

You're spreading 1980's misinformation. Not surprising from you.
Viruses don't discriminate
Anyone can get HIV via multiple non sexual actions as well as through heterosexual sex.
I know it makes you feel superior to label HIV a Gay disease but that's not reality. HIV was spread to humans in Africa from them eating & huting monkeys.
The origin of HIV AIDS
How did HIV cross from chimps to humans?
The most commonly accepted theory is that of the 'hunter'. In this scenario, SIVcpz was transferred to humans as a result of chimps being killed and eaten, or their blood getting into cuts or wounds on people in the course of hunting.5 Normally, the hunter's body would have fought off SIV, but on a few occasions the virus adapted itself within its new human host and became HIV-1.
There are four main groups of HIV strains (M, N, O and P), each with a slightly different genetic make-up. This supports the hunter theory because every time SIV passed from a chimpanzee to a human, it would have developed in a slightly different way within the human body, and produced a slightly different strain. This explains why there is more than one strain of HIV-1.6
The most studied strain of HIV is HIV-1 Group M, which is the strain that has spread throughout the world and is responsible for the vast majority of HIV infections today.
