I'm really amazed at how very UN-INFORMED many webmasters are about hiv and AIDS. Not just because they are in the "sex industry", but because I would think they would be well read on the subject since they potentially face it every day.
There have been a few comments on here that have said "Well, at least if you have hiv, you don't worry about having to catch it again." Or.."at least you can have sex with other hiv infected models then."
A person with hiv can be RE-INFECTED! In fact, the big worry in the U.S. now is that the mutated strains (yes, there are several) are starting to spread, and those that have hiv think they can have unprotected sex with another hiv person and don't worry about it SHOULD worry! You can catch the mutated virus, or what is called "re-infection". And you do NOT want to have the virulent virus! It is 10 times nastier than the most common strain in the U.S. that has it's history back to the late 70's, 80's when it developed. In fact, MOST people infected before 1990 has the "less virulent" virus..but alas so many people died before the advent of the cocktails. Now, the new strains are showing up on a regular basis in NEW infections.
Do not think that just because there are pills that have made the virus somwhat controllable, that you should let you guard down when having sex! It's very possible, probably PROBABLE that in the long run, current drug regimes will start failing too.
Bottom line: GET EDUCATED ABOUT HIV!!
