They say 1/4 of all HIV victims are unaware that they have the disease. At first, I thought everyone with AIDS should be separated from society, but that's impractical, financially and in other ways, too.
What if all US citizens were required to get yearly HIV tests? For those who can't afford it, the test would be free for those under a certain income bracket. Anybody who does not get tested each year will be arrested and charged with crime. Anyone who turns out to have the virus should have a permanent mark made by branding or tattooing (sedated, of course) (maybe on the inside of the elbow, so it doesn't show during business settings). That way, potential sex partners can simply check the person's elbow, as well as drug accomplices, etc.
I wish everyone could be responsible and avoid casual sex, test regularly on their own, use condoms, and avoid intravenous drugs, but that's not the way it is. This disease must be eradicated, even if it takes force.
