When it works in Africa, Don't Fix it...

Uganda has one of the lowest prevelances of AIDS in Africa. This is due in large part to it having stressed abstinence and fidelity according to some. Uganda years ago started a campaign that stressed abstinence first, and condoms as a last resort. The results are a success story for Africa in the fight against AIDS.

Some people want to fix the situation:

Infection rates have fallen from 15% to 5% but critics say this could now rise because the government is promoting abstinence, rather than safe sex.

Sure. Makes sense. The rates fall, and government is promoting abstinence. So it only makes logical sense, in the la-la fruity land of some, that by continuing to promote abstinence the rates would rise.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
