No doubt there are many in the Moscow/Pullman area who should be HIV tested that have nothing to do with Mubito. You assume people will trust that the results of HIV tests are completely confidential, <FONT color=#ff0000>you</FONT> <FONT color=#ff0000>are mis quoting what has been said all along. I can tell you numerous emails have gone out on this list stating that a positive result goes to the state. Besides, in the pre-screening process it is stated to the individual. Boy, you really need to do your homework. </FONT> yet many people have a deep seated suspicion about information leaking out from doctors, and there is good evidence there are serious problems with doctor patient confidentiality, as you must know.<BR><BR>You present no solid statistical evidence that the serious legal problems a person might face after they discover they are HIV positive does not have a chilling effect on the thousands who need to be HIV tested, a chilling effect the Mubito case may in fact be having. The fact that if you remain untested, you cannot be charged with a crime if you do transmit HIV, while if you are tested and are HIV positive, all that is required to bring charges is a claim by someone that you had sexual relations with them and did not inform them of your HIV status, may give pause to many when they consider being tested. <FONT color=#ff0000>OK. You win. Everyone who</FONT> <FONT color=#ff0000>had sexual relations with Mubita,</FONT> <FONT color=#ff0000>DON'T GET TESTED BECAUSE TED SAYS YOU WILL BE PROSECUTED.......... You are an idiot if this is your message.</FONT><BR><BR>I am certain, though I do not have solid statistical evidence before me for this statement, that many who should be HIV tested look at all the ramifications of receiving a positive test, involving legal issues, career, sex life, family and friendship, and think twice. ..... <FONT color=#ff0000>Idiot screams loud and clear!</FONT><BR></FONT></FONT></DIV>
