Federal health officials recommended Wednesday that hundreds of thousands of Americans at risk for AIDS take a daily pill that has been shown to prevent infection with the virus that causes it. 

 

 

It would mean a 50-fold increase in the number of prescriptions for the drug, Truvada — to 500,000 a year from fewer than 10,000. The drug costs $13,000 a year, and most insurers already cover it.

 

Hard for me to believe that insurers would pay $13,000/year so some gays can bareback!

To be clear just in case there's someone reading this online who is rushing out to break down their pharmacy door to buy this new drug Truvada and all whilst throwing way all their pack of condoms as they go, Truvada does NOT claim to 100% prevent HIV infection, it merely reduces the risk ( albeit quite a lot) but it also can result in quite a few unwanted side effects and obviously if safe sex is not being practiced you are also then leaving yourself and others wide open to picking up the full spectrum of the other large amount of STI's out there - with Syphillis especially making a rampant come back of late right throughout the gay world unfortunately again it seems.

 

So, if you're a health care worker or such like then perhaps maybe this new drug can be seen as an added shield to help protect yourself just that little bit more against accidental HIV infection, but to think for even a moment that this is a new way to enable you to practice unsafe sex whilst 100% staying STI / HIV free -  guaranteed - would be VERY mistaken. So keep using those condoms guys as is it REALLY worth risking your good health for the rest of your life for the sake of just one quick random fuck ......

My little bloke will remain wrapped in a rain coat, as will any others that try to shag me, no rain coat no go.

But enough about your fetish for 4ft midgets wearing raincoats who you want to shag you  - you should perhaps be more concerned about the welfare of your cock !
