Why hasnt there been some kind of quarantine for people with HIV? too inhumane? So is spreading the disease?


Question:
I mean think about it here, the reason it prpbably hasnt been done is because it seems "inhumane" yet spreading the disease isnt? What is that a gift? And not all people, just the people who knowingly spread it to others.

Answers:
OK, so youre suggesting that all who are infected with HIV or aids get on the boat for Leper Island? Most of the time people do not know that they are infected, so they don't take the proper precautions to keep from transmitting it to another person. You idea makes me think that you do not realize this. Very discriminatory and paranoid of you. Next youll suggest that all individuals afflicted with cancer be sent away as well. How about this, you go away and put yourself in quarantine so that you don't have to interact with any knowingly sick people. That sounds like the way to do it..

Other Answers:
If your mother got it accidentally from a blood transfusion, would you be ok with the men in white suits coming to take her away?
Did you know people can have HIV and not know it until 6 or 7 years later?
there are just TOO many people out there. the ones that knowingly spread it to others can be sent to prison, believe it or not.
HIV is not a communicable virus unless you are sharing needles, blood, etc therefore causes no need to quarantine the people that have it.
i wish there was a quarantine for ignorant people.
your Q is good, but i want to remind to some points:

- incubation period to this disaese is too long.
- you have no system to do HIV regularly.
- can you do your suggestion to the millions of people.
-with treatment, you can prolonge patient to 10 years or more, can you do quarantine for him all this time.
-finally, not all pt that have HIV are guilty
Wow, first of all the word you are looking for is "isolation". The word "quarantine" would mean that anyone who came into contact with a person who is HIV+ would be put into isolation. That is virtually everyone! Isolation is when the patient, and the patient only is isolated, not the people who come into contact with them. HIV is not spread easily. People who knowingly spread the virus can be convicted and "isolated" by being sent to jail. Otherwise it is an unnecessary and inhumane measure. Take care and stay safe!
so what are you gonna do with millions and millions of people who are HIV+ ?? are you gonna test everyone? believe everyone?..HIV has gone way beyond that.
So what if you were raped and had no choice in knowing or not , Quarantine isn't the answer finding the cure is .
