HIV man guilty of infecting lovers
Oct. 14th, 2003 01:08 pmA man diagnosed with HIV has been found guilty of "callously" infecting two women with the virus. ..
Father-of-three Dica, of Fleming Road, Mitcham, south-west London, had told police both women knew of his condition before they had sex.
But the court heard he persuaded one woman to have unprotected sex by claiming he had undergone a vasectomy and pursued the second victim, a mother of two, repeatedly telling her he loved her and wanted her to have his children.

"There can be no better example of grievous bodily harm than infecting with HIV. Once one is infected that is the end of the story. It may take a while for you to die, but die you inevitably do."
Leaving aside the message in the last paragraph - you really do not want to catch HIV, but if you do, your options are much greater than this suggests - I think this is really bad news that will lead to more infections, not fewer.
