US travel ban still in place?
Martin
on HIVers entering the US was lifted some time ago. But, apparently,
it's still in place...

The Obama administration will soon officially announce a change in
rules to allow HIV-positive foreign nationals to enter the country,
according to Immigration Equality.
Steve Ralls, an Immigration Equality spokesperson, said the final rule
change has moved from the Department of Health & Human Services to the
White House Office of Management & Budget, which will officially
announce the change.
“Immigration Equality believes that repeal is imminent,” he said. “Our
expectation is the publication will happen very soon, and following a
potential short window between publication and implementation, the HIV
travel and immigration ban will be a thing of the past.”
Ralls said the announcement from OMB could come as soon as Wednesday.
Last year, former President George W. Bush signed into law, as part of
the reauthorization of the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief,
a provision removing the HIV travel ban from federal statutes.
The law returned authority to HHS on whether HIV should stay on a list
of communicable diseases barring foreign nationals from entering the
United States.

Sadly, it appears I won't be playing Santa this year. :(
However, as I don't carry around truck loads of HIV wonder-drugs with
me, I doubt I'd have any problems entering the US... or its fag
citizens.

The US is to end its 22-year ban on people with HIV entering the
country, President Barack Obama has confirmed.
[...]
He said the entry ban had been "rooted in fear rather than fact".
[...]
"On Monday, my administration will publish a final rule that
eliminates the travel ban effective just after the New Year."

Obama got awfully close to the truth there. The whole of HIV
non-science and theory is "rooted in fear rather than fact."
As we know, HIV has failed to live up to any of the terrible promises
made about it.
It affects only a tiny number of people, only fags and niggers need
worry about being getting it, and the non-virus now takes a lifetime
to kill its host.
This is all a far cry from promises that hundreds of millions would be
infected with HIV by now, anyone could get it, and that HIV led
rapidly to AIDS and premature death.
Did liar and thief Gallo and other HIV enablers get anything right
about their toy virus?
There's still no test for HIV, and a vaccine is as far away as ever...
in other words there never will be one... it's difficult to vaccinate
against something that doesn't exist.
