Military Personnel And Their Partners Can Not Get Quality Treatment.
A medical doctor with practice caring for armed forces personnel says the US military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" regulation puts both service members and the prevalent public at risk by encouraging secrecy about sexual health issues. "Infections go undiagnosed. Service members and their partners go untreated," Dr Kenneth Katz, a doctor at San Diego State University and the University of California at San Diego, wrote in a commentary published Dec 1, 2010 in the New England Journal of Medicine.
And civilians "pay a price" because they have mating with employ members who feel nostalgia for out on programs aimed at preventing the spread of the HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, as well as other sexually transmitted diseases. The soldiery is currently pondering the end of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy, which does not brook gay service members to serve openly. No one knows how many gays are in the armed forces. However, one 2002 scan found that active-duty Navy sailors made up 9 percent of the patients who visited one vivid men's health clinic in San Diego.

For The Early Diagnosis Of HIV Can Use Genetic Techniques
For The Early Diagnosis Of HIV Can Use Genetic Techniques.
In a deed to overhaul the methods for early detection of HIV, researchers sought to adjudge if a program using "nucleic acid testing" (NAT) would increase the number of cases that could be detected early, and found that it did so by 23 percent. Nucleic acid tests aspect for traces of genetic secular from an infecting organism. This differs from standard detection methods that rely on spotting inoculated system antibodies to the pathogen.
Despite decades of prevention programs in the United States, the HIV degree rate has remained stable, the study authors noted in a University of California, San Diego report release. The earliest stages of HIV infection are when people are most likely to infect others, so premature and accurate detection is crucial in efforts to control the spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, they explained.
