Lately I've read a lot of articles like this piece, talking about how Russia is increasingly insane in their approach to HIV. They've blamed condom usage for the spread of AIDS. They've sided with a very conservative orthodox church. They're promoting abstinence over all else, especially over those evil condoms.
They're persecuting aid groups trying to help with HIV, homelessness & addiction. They're labeling these people as some kind of aggressive & subversive foreign agents. Never mind most of them our local charity groups.
Russia now seeks to focus on abstinence & treatment only. The officials seem to have little use for compassion, charity, education or prevention. No wonder the country's HIV rates are climbing.
Cya..
