Comments on: Luo elders urged to encourage male circumcision to end high HIV cases https://nyanzanews.co.ke/news/national-news/luo-elders-urged-to-encourage-male-circumcision-to-end-high-hiv-cases/ Voice of the Region Mon, 17 Oct 2016 09:26:29 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0 By: Hugh Young https://nyanzanews.co.ke/news/national-news/luo-elders-urged-to-encourage-male-circumcision-to-end-high-hiv-cases/#comment-9606 Mon, 17 Oct 2016 09:26:29 +0000 http://www.migorinews.co.ke/?p=3973#comment-9606 The claim that cutting (the best) part off the penis reduces HIV “by 60%” is chanted like a mantra, but it is in fact highly debatable and means very little. Condoms are much more effective, and if you use a condom, having the foreskin cut off can make little or no difference. If men get cut because they think it will protect them, and then fail to use condoms, HIV will go up, not down. There is evidence this is happening already.
