[Shelly]

Did you know you can die from the flu? And you can transmit it freely and
legally?

Wayne --

A disease that reduces one's average lifespan by fifteen or so years, or
that one survives for twenty years, is not "terminal." It is "chronic."
Other chronic diseases, like Hepatitis C and malaria, have similar lethality
profiles, can be transmitted through bodily fluids, and are not illegal to
transmit. You will not be arrested for transmitting your tuberculosis or
leprosy. Typhoid Mary is immune from prosecution.

And HIV will most likely not kill new HIV+ cases today. Now, because HIV
depresses the immune system and because the majority of HIV drugs
(nucleoside analogues in particular) have effects  that may be carcinogenic.
However, the most fatal effect of HIV -- AIDS -- is almost entirely
preventable.
