It doesn't say, does it Sleazer? It just lists the number one and two 
ways that AIDS is known to be spread. The third most common way 
that it was spread used to be through blood transfusions but testing 
now mostly prevents that. 

From the article: 

   At most, about 5 percent of AIDS patients are hetero***uals who 
   likely got the disease from someone who was not at high risk

AT MOST 5% of AIDS patients are heteros. Probably a good size of 
the remaining 28% are gays and/or IV drug users who don't admit to 
it.

began in the 80s.

How do you explain the high rate of hetero***ual AIDS in Africa but 
not here? HMMM? Or do you just insult people who do offer ideas 
without offering any of your own?
