Well, people are people, and nobody does anything with 100% accuracy. You, trying to put this on the people, is pretty despicable. Context matters a lot. Education matters a lot. Life gets in the way. It sucks. But when you have 8+ billion of people on the planet, expect some percentage of them to do things you think don't make sense to you. Accept it. Telling people to use condoms neither solves the problem, helps the person, or helps resolve future incidents.

>>You, trying to put this on the people, is pretty despicable. To be clear, I am talking about in first world countries where people have more agency and are expected to take responsibility for their own health.

  Really? That makes it better? Living in the first world country means you don't make very human mistakes? It means life doesn't get in the way sometimes? Look, your view seems to be "people in first world countries should be acting how I think they should act, and I just can't imagine myself getting into this situation so that means they can't, and thus I'm going to treat them like they did something wrong". You don't know the context other people have, so don't judge them.

    Also living in a "first world country" vs "third world country" doesn't mean anything at all. Personal situation, social class and wealth are the key parameters as is financement of specific drug by social security and private insurances.

    I think people should take responsibility for themselves. It's not a hard concept to understand. It's part of adulthood.

      Adult living in the first world, among other adults living in the first world. Where I'm from designing for people "not making mistakes" is considered to be unconscionable and negligent. The fact that people (yes, everyone) makes mistakes is well studied and statistically backed, so any solution you have where they just "take responsibility" will not work.

      What does this even mean? Since when does "take responsibility" mean "I won't make mistakes" or "I wont' find myself in an context which causes me an outcome that I didn't want"? Or "I don't deserve good treatment if I find myself in a situation?" You are showing yourself to not be a serious thinking here. Your view point is just "be better, people", which lacks any kind of intellectual or philosophical depth.
