Re: Alarming health stats..
I assume the figure of 254 new cases above is 254 of the total of 5047. In other words, 95% of all new HIV diagnoses pertain to HIV acquired outside the UK. Surely the answer is simple - keep the so-called asylum seekers and the rest of the riff-raff out of this country.
The medication bill alone for someone who is HIV positive is over £10,000 per annum; under current asylum law, anyone who is HIV pos has indefinate leave to remain in the UK.
Anyway, I could speak about this all day, but I'm going back to my Bacon Butty.
