Today is a day set aside for HIV and AIDS as it releates to aging awareness. NHAAAD for "short".
I think that this all stems from the fact that a diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus infection is no longer the "automatic" death sentence it was in the 70s through the 90s and I dare say this has resulted in complacent behaviors among those high risk groups circulating the promiscuity scene.
Though the observance is held under the auspices of The AIDS Institute; I found tidbits of information on the CDC site as well ...
With a focus on those challenges associated with an aging population, HIV prevention, testing, care, treatment, and it's a wonder all we old people aren't running around infected by now; my point being that the level of promiscuity found in nursing homes and retirement communities is quite a bit more robust, statistically speaking than I would have ever guessed.
Where did my interest in all this risky behavior go ?
It just diminished over time and I suppose one too many psycho bitches in my life didn't provide much impetus for continued prowling on my part.
