People with sickle cell trait are protected to some extent against some kinds of malaria, because their red cells burst or become stiff before the malaria parasite can develop fully. As anyone with this problem will tell you, it's not worth the freight. The other concequences far outweigh the minimal benefits regarding malaria. And no, it doesn't protect against the worst forms of malaria. > > Now lets look at the opposite, the AIDS virus - apparently , there must be a > > genetic predisposition to that in order to really get past the HIV "positive" > > stage.

Yeah, there is a genetic predisposition to acquiring infection with HIV and getting AIDS as a consequence - it has to do with being a man (or woman) not a monkey and living long enough. Whether homosexuality is "nature" or "nurture" remains the exciting debating realm of frat houses. George, most of us no longer give a shit. It just is. And its existence doesn't bother us. > I only mention this since I see you are not as quick to recommend > dealing with malaria as you were for getting tested for > "pailshotitis", and since I have not yet sucked my first dick, Is this a boast or a regret? > I see no need to get tested. Now I've heard of an "Irish Bull", but this one is outstanding in the field.
