How do we stop HIV/AIDS in the USA?

The standard practice of QUARANTINE is applied in public health to prevent the spread of dangerous communicable diseases.

HIV/AIDS causes terrible suffering, pain, sorrow and death. It's incurable and will not likely ever be cured.

And most tragic of all, most such cases are preventable!

Folks that practice high risk and irresponsible behaviours - such as intravenous drug abusers, homosexuals, the sexually promiscuous and adulterers - often end up with the horror of HIV/AIDS.

Now when this monsterous disease was first identified in the USA in the early 1980's - almost exclusively in homosexuals (remember when it was called GRID, ie "Gay Related Immune Deficiency?") - then still a small segment of the US population, we should have acted! Sadly, we did not.

Unfortunately, politics prevented the needed remedy - QUARANTINE! How many more Americans will suffer and die needlessly from HIV/AIDS before we act?

And now that so many people in the USA have HIV/AIDS, is quarantine feasable logistically today? How would such an effort work? Who would make the determination of who is quarantined? And would our already eroded unalienable Rights - given to us by GOD - withstand such a massive national effort?

If you think quarantine is the solution to this terrible problem, consider signing this petition calling for the QUARANTINE of all people with HIV/AIDS in the USA! If you disagree with this option, please share your alternative solutions!

Speak up ladies and gentlemen - many lives are at stake!

Yours For Better Public Health,

Bro' Bob
