    Everything you said is 100% true. Absolutely.

    But compared to the horror of potentially getting HIV, it’s pretty magical in promiscuous circles.

    It’s much better than the alternative

      I see HIV patients on a daily basis at my job and there is no almost no horror. I haven’t seen a “real” AIDS case (the final stadium of the infection) in years and even the one patient that came close had a Lazarus like recovery once he started ART.
      HIV is still a serious disease with comorbidities but it’s “only” chronical not lethal.

      But a prevented infection is better than a treated one, so you’re right.
