HOLLAND

Legal prostitution.
Massive red light district.

Population: - 16,318,199 (Jan. 2004)
Median age: - 38.7
Death rate: - 8.67 per 1,000
Life expectancy: - 78.68


HIV/AIDS Prevalence (adult) 0.2%
People living with 'AIDS' : - 17,000

Total deaths: - 110 (2001 est)

COMMENT

That means that for all the 17,000 people 'living with 'AIDS' to die will take (based on 110 dying in 20 years) a total of 2,428 years.

As the median age is 38.7 that means a mere 1.65% will ever die of 'AIDS' in their lifetime.

ONE POINT SIX EIGHT!

'AIDS' is an odd std. It does not target countries that have massive prostitution or liberal sexual attitudes.

Denmark, Sweden, Japan and the Phillipines have almost no 'AIDS'

It seems to hate sex and leave those who indulge, well alone.

It also only seems to kill people in puritan countries like Britain and America.

Perhaps it has a use after all?

Is an 'HIV' fan club the next step?
