What the hell are you talking about? Cancer Development Center?

The CDC is Centers for Disease Control.

The most disturbing thing is that the huge increase is mostly due to a large jump in the Hispanic community, as well as a maintenance of the obscenely large percentage of infections in the black community. This is because the vast majority of education campaigns are geared towards suburban whites rather than urban minorities. Combine that with the machismo about homosexuality in such minority groups and it's a recipe for this kind of disaster.

What boggles my mind is people who seem to think that just because HIV is somewhat treatable, it's worth risking getting it just for slightly better sex. Stupid is as stupid does.

Between McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Arby's, Taco Bell, KFC and Subway, there's no need for some mother on a tight budget to take her brood to McDonalds more than once a week. The world of grease is her oyster.

how do you gear education towards minorities? They are humans after all. Do they not understand english? Actually some of the hispanics probably don't. Anti-Aids ads in spanish might help.

I don't understand why we have to "modify" everything to get the minorities to understand. I kind of want to say something here, but I won't. It will be deemed racist.

All I can say is the Anti-AIDS message is everywhere. It's just some people choose to ignore it.

Unless you are saying minorities don't pay attention to advertisements because there are white people on the billboards and not blacks and hispanics.

Just ask Ming. Advertising effectiveness is very buch based on how you present it to any particular market. Things that grab the attention of the suburban whites aren't necessarily going to do the same for urban minorities, especially for minorities that doubly feel on the fringes of society.

HIV education programs involve more than just putting up billboards--it's about reaching out through community centers, schools, etc. These are institutions whose infrastructure is sorely lacking in poor urban communities. It's especially hard to reach urban minority gays, given the heightened social stigma for them. Just like their heterosexual counterparts, they also tend to be victims of their cultural idiosyncracies involving condom use.

It's a very complex issue that isn't so simple as just putting up a sign.

Sorry I jumped on you about that, MrFun. (Ummm... let me rephrase.)

Sorry I was testy with you about that, MrFun. (hmmm... "testy"... no.)

Sorry I was short with y... NO.

Sorry about that, MrFun. "Cancer Development Center" just sounded like something some conspiracy nut would call the CDC, and it set my teeth on edge. I really just should have known better that you were just mistaken about what CDC stood for, instead of assuming that you somehow blamed the government for unleashing HIV... especially since that wouldn't have made the first bit of sense in the context of your posts.

Sorry again.

Do we? I should check next time I'm passing in front of a McDo.

But it is possible. Our public health authorities issue advice on pretty much everything regarding public health, and obesity is becoming a very worrisome phenomenon among children now.
