Can't discuss facts .....it appears to be an emotional thing for you.

And the reduction in infections for 20 years was due to the gay

I dont accept your statistic (as vague as it is) but whatever the fed 
government spends, it hasn't found a cure...and the reduction in infection 
rates were not due to US government spending.
