    Let's remind ourselves that straight men & women have unprotected sex very frequently...especially in the UK (teenage pregnancy rates).

    I wonder how many of them do not know that they maybe HIV+?

    GL

    Of the reported 24,296 people diagnosed with HIV in Western Europe in 2008:

    42% probably acquired HIV through heterosexual contact;
    35% were men who had sex with men;
    4% were injecting drug users;
    30% were female;
    and 10% were 15 to 24 years old.
