"We can end HIV":

...as long as we can convince everyone to take it. So, yeah. Good luck with that.

    You can convince people of everything, if it depends on you having more sex or not.

    No pills. Have sex. Die. No sex.

    Yes pills. Have sex. Live. More sex.

    Wouldnt I still need to rubber up to avoid genital warts, herpes, Hep, HPV, among others?

    Of course, but rubbers can fail and they don't prevent everything. Many STDs like herpes, hpv etc are not stopped by them because they are transferred by skin contact, not necessarily genital contact. So yea they're still a great idea.

    I've never had intercourse without one as all my gfs preferred the extra safety. No problem.

    You don't need to convince everyone, just enough people.

    Were already seeing really good progress with pills and condoms, so an option which doesn't need to be taken on a strict daily schedule will be a huge boon.
