RANT

Welcome to the RANT page, commonly known as the guestbook. But for our purposes, I think "rant" describes the intensity of people's feelings on the issues covered here.

Another purpose for this page is to give space to people who have something they wish to say, but nowhere relevant to say it. So, now comments elsewhere can remain relevant to the pages or posts in which they are placed.

Thanks.

About

  • Male Circumcision and HIV provides a place for a public health policy debate on the linking of male circumcision and HIV/AIDS. It seeks to address questions of cost versus benefit, the effectiveness of circumcision in the fight against HIV/AIDS in real world settings, and the differing points of view of researchers, the media, and all contributors to the policy discussion.
