Kuna Makala moja ya kiuchunguzi ilichapishwa katika gazeti la the citizen na kuwekwa kwenye mtandao kuhusu tohara kwa wanaume inavyoweza kusaidia kupunguza maambukizi ya UKIMWI.
Hata hivyo baada ya kuwekwa kwenye mtandao gonga hapa watu mbalimbali walitoa maoni 6 ambayo yamenipa utata juu ya umuhimu wa tohara hiyo kama inavyoelezwa na wataalam wa tiba katika kampeini za kutokeza ugonjwa huo nchini Tanzania.

Je wewe unasemaje baada ya kusoma makala hiyo na maoni haya


1:We should care more about sexual health. It's said on Positivemate.com - Best place to find love, friendship, healthy dating, that is the most trusted STD support and safe dating community, there are currently 33 million people living with HIV in the world. No consternation there're 600,000+ members on Positivemate, some celebrities also find support and love there.

2:“Scary-bad journalism in this piece. Indeed there IS a lucritive market for amputated foreskin. Just google Foreskins for Sale.

Indeed a 2009 report by Wawer/Gray found that circumcising a Ugandan man increased his PARTNERS risk for contracting HIV by 50%.

Indeed a 2010 study by Bailey found that circumcised Kenyans were no less likely to have HIV, but were less likely to use a condom.

Indeed Tanzania DOES have a higher HIV infection rate presently among its circumcised men.

Indeed foreskin feels REALLY good.”


3”:Africa is being figuratively and physically raped.

Circumcision does not, cannot protect anybody against HIV, not the men, not their partners.

All you have to do is look at America, where over 80% of the men are already circumcised, and Europe, where 80% or so are not.

HIV transmission rate is in fact HIGHER in America than in Europe.

How is something that has failed in the USA going to start working miracles in Africa?

The men are going to wake up to a cruel reality; they are going to have mutilated organs AND an HIV+ test.

And THEN what are charities going to do? More money is going to be wasted on putting them on drugs in the long run, when that money could be put to better use.

Condoms already do a better job than circumcision.

WHAT are people thinking?”


4:”this is a tragedy and based on a myth. Genital mutilation for that is what it is either provides NO prevention of AIDS or at least very limited protection for a short time.This is dangerous these mutilktaed conned men are going to think that they are now safe to have sex when they are not. This is some pervey agenda with a muslim involved following a babaric meaningless thing with no reason for it.

These m,en will suffer can die or become unable to have sexual intercourse for no reason at all it is a disgrace and a scandal.”


5:”A study from USAIDS, (http://www.measuredhs.com/pubs/pdf/CR22/CR22.pdf) found "There appears to be no clear pattern of association between male circumcision and HIV prevalence. In 8 of 18 countries with data, as expected, HIV prevalence is lower among circumcised men, while in the remaining 10 countries HIV prevalence is higher among circumcised men"

There was on the other hand a clear correlation between HIV infection and recent medical injections in every country. Did the circumcision studies control for that?


I heard this news. Don't be upset by HIV. A most active people on a HIV dating and community site HIVromances.com (whether I spell the site correctly) said "The more we learn about something like HIV and AIDS, the closer we get to finding a cure, even if we see how much we will have to endure to win that race."”

6;”Stupid is as stupid doe because
