Our 'Help' has just made it worse. There are now 3 times the amount of people in Ethiopia and there was in the 80's. And they wonder why they cannot fed themselves, and the the fact that religious nuts are running vast areas now.

it's pretty obvious well to me it is.
use a condom, don't share needles, don't touch anyone else's blood.
basically certain bodily fluids and blood are the main ways of transmission. you cannot get it by kissing unless the person has an ulcer, cut or something in their mouth.
basically don't do drugs and don't be a ****, pretty simple's.

It doesn't matter if you've watched Team America. Everyone have AIDS 
As if health tourism isn't already enough of a problem....
Yes, it's morally right to want to help people in need - but you just know that this will be abused. It's a "National" Health Service, not an "International" one.

nhs is bad enough. no matter who you are u can get treated at a hosptial. and yet if a british citizen walks into a foreign hospital its all whare are ur forms and insurance documents.
why are we so civalised to other nations when they just crap all over us.
..because we have to lead by example, no?
In other countries they call it losing face/looking weak.
I work for a company who is based in crystal lake, illnoid. we've just found out they've taken away 40 illegal migrants, one of which was a supervisor thats been there since 1994. no get out fre card, no pass go and collect $200, straight to the deportation.
20 million isnt that much illegal,s i bet we have hals as many as that and were a peanut in size comparison to the states
Anyone should be able to receive treatment from a hospital in an emergency situation regardless. That's just being decent, treating human life as precious and goes without saying. If you're in Europe or in any of the Commonwealth countries, chances are you'll be fine tbh.
I was just grinding an axe for those who choose to abuse the system. Non-emergency treatment, especially for pre-existing conditions should not be open to abuse by people who have never paid a penny into the system IMO .
Not sure if I worded my post it ambiguously, but no, it isn't, and that was what I was trying to get at.

Giving people with HIV treatment in this country will surely help reduce the spread of the disease amongst the rest of the population
So aside from benefiting ill people who may have had the "misfortune" of being born in a country, it'll also probably reduce the rate of infection in the UK. Win-Win.

If we run the risk of infection from foreigners why are we letting them in?
With HIV treatment being unavailable or prohibitively expensive in other countries without state-funded care, I think you'll find it'll also attract even more people who want to come into the UK to use the NHS facilities. But it's OK, we can afford it, right?
You do realise how expensive HIV and AIDS treatment programmes are?

then again even if you're educated and your options are;
a) You have an incurable disease, that requires expensive medication to keep you alive that you couldn't afford even if you had access to you will die a slow and horrible death.
b)You have a horrible disease, shagging a virgin will cure you, you know it's probbaly ******** but hey what's the alternative?
Especially when you're in a country where 1/50th of the population is raped every year, you can expect peoples social aversion to committing rape to be somewhat lower than our own.
well no, people come for treatment but then till shag around spreading the illness....
If we just shot them at the border and flung their corpses in to France maybe but that's a logistical nightmare. I mean where would we fine strong enough elastic to make the catapult?
