This is an overly simplistic, optimistic view of disease. Method of exposure matters significantly. Note how heterosexual couples virtually never have to worry about HIV, for example, if you're unfamiliar with this concept.

- 1000units 8y agoPlease elaborate if you have the opportunity. How many strictly heterosexual couples have been infected with HIV in the history of mankind? I'm aware there must be some due to IV drug abuse.
- coldtea 8y ago>How many strictly heterosexual couples have been infected with HIV in the history of mankind? Several tens of millions (most of them in Africa), why?
- 1000units 8y agoDo you have any statistics on this you can refer me to? The CDC estimates the transmission risk for receptive PIV intercourse to be about 8 in 10,000 exposures (0.08%). It's half that for the insertive partner.
- coldtea 8y ago>Note how heterosexual couples virtually never have to worry about HIV, for example, if you're unfamiliar with this concept. Yeah, that's not how HIV (or heterosexual couples) work...
