HIV/AIDS: non-IDU HCV in MSM's

HA! The alphabet soup of AIDS attacks!!!

To translate the title:

"Human Immunodeficiency Disorder/Acquired Immune Deficiency Disorder: Non-Intravenous Drug Use (IDU) Hepatitis C Virus in Men who have Sex with Men"

And the link is here (from the Journal of Infectious Diseases)

Apparently, there's a little bit of a new trend in Hepatitis C infection -- usually linked almost universally to injectible drug use and HIV-positive sexual transmissions -- in non-IDU and non-HIV men who have sex with men.

Dangers ahead.
