The message that so-called safe sex and reliance on condoms will prevent the spread of AIDS has not only proven to be untrue for the people of Africa it may well have condemned untold numbers to contracting the disease. A recent report released by the Medical Institute for Sexual Health HIV/Pandemic shows that increased reliance on condoms encourages promiscuity, which in turn leads to the spread of AIDS. Says Dr. Edward C. Green of Harvard’s Center for population and Development Studies, “We are not seeing what we expected: that higher levels of condom availability result in lower HIV prevalence,’ Green adds that we are, “Raising a generation of young people in Africa that believe that condoms will prevent HIV. In reality condoms tend to fail up to 20% of the time.”
