WIVES MORE LIKELY TO CONTRACT HIV FROM CIRCUMCISED HUSBANDS.

WIVES MORE LIKELY TO CONTRACT HIV
FROM CIRCUMCISED HUSBANDS.

In a two-year study, wives of circumcised men were 58% more likely to contract HIV than wives of intact men.

 

The study, presented at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Boston, was carried out in Uganda and funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

 

It compared the annual HIV incidence in the wives of men who had been circumcised to wives of men who remained intact.
