I've often commented that the HIV dream is kept alive because everyone
benefits from it. Even Christians manage to sidestep the delicate
question of why their god invented the virus and use it to push their
message.
Here we have a news article about Father Maxim Pletnev 'teaching'
Russian Youth not to have ***. I wonder if he gives practical
demonstrations of what not to do?
And in true HIV statistical fa****on, WHO almost quadruples the number
of HIVers in Russia from just over 400,000 to 1.5 million.

Father Maxim Pletnev from St. Petersburg diocese has been working with
World Vision since the introduction of Abstinence and Risk avoidance
for youth (ARK) -- a unique methodology to fight HIV/AIDS, which World
Vision has been using to reach young people.
"One of the reasons I started working with World Vision is because it
is a Christian organization," said Father Maxim.
"There are many HIV prevention programs in Russia targeting young
people, but very few help young people develop moral standards. The
uniqueness of the approach World Vision has is that its program is
based on promoting abstinence, faithfulness to your partner and
chastity," he said.

World Vision says that some 60 young people met recently with Russian
Orthodox priests and project activists at a youth forum held in
Orenburg and St. Petersburg on Candlelight Memorial day (May 18) to
remember people who are living with HIV and AIDS and who have died as
a result of contracting the virus.
[...]
Official statistics talk of 407,508 registered cases of HIV infection,
but according to the World Health Organization the real figure of
people living with HIV in Russia may be as high as 1.5 million people.
