Not many of us would knowingly have sex with someone who had the aids virus. I wouldn't consider it even with a condom. It is two risky. If these Africans have been misled into believing a condom makes sex with someone who probably has aids safe; they need to be reeducated.

Sure. No one is saying condoms protect you from AIDS 100% of the time. Seatbelts don't protect people when driving 100% of the time. But if you're going to drive (and most people do), its just a good idea to wear it. Would you be ulitmately safer if you never drove? Or just drove a bike? Sure... but thats just not the way people operate.
I don't get how a combination of abstinence, condoms, and education isn't the best way to go. Why not use every tool at our disposal?
