Access to condoms and again imparting the benefit of using them.

It's the 1980s all over again - Gonorrhea-cases exploded then too (was even worse in the 1970s; all that "free love = free sex"-stuff from the US you know) but thanks to HIV it was possible to get the gays to practice - for them - restraint and to use precautions like condoms, having fewer partners and not having anonymous unprotected sex.

Now, thanks to no HIV-fear (modern medicine) and a culture that annoints having many anonymous partners as the ideal, homosexuals help spread STDs like none other.

And thanks to political correctness and woke, it's become "insensitive" to point out facts of the matter: gays spread diseases magnitudes more than normal people thanks to the way they behave.

Remember the monkey-pox scare the other year? That died on the vine when it came out (Ha!) that 90%+ of cases were among homosexual men.

Keep looking and you'll find increasing numbers of syphilis too, spread by homosexual men and by closeted gays with a normal life going on sex-vacations to Thailand and such places.

Time will come when mandatory blood serum testing of all travellers to points outside the EU /will/ eventually become necessary, and with them we'll get all the rest of the stupid lockdown, social distancing and so on too.

I hear you about the condoms--but the easiest way to do would be to enquire about sexual orientation of travellers around the 'pride' season and hand them a bag of them upon arrival at the airport, eh?

'And thanks to political correctness and woke, it's become "insensitive" to point out facts of the matter: gays spread diseases magnitudes more than normal people thanks to the way they behave.'

That's the core issue here: the skyrocketing gonorrhea rates are a function of this, and while Norwegians are relatively open about this, comparatively speaking (see above), their 'communication' efforts fall very short. Same with MPox last year, as you noted.

Health screenings before/after travel will become widely diffused before too long (think Covid passports), but I doubt that, once the 'facts' about the 'superspreader events'--'pride' parades--becomes impossible to hide, public support for the event per se and 'free goodies' will evaporate, as will toleration for restrictions w/respect to travel restrictions for everyone but those 'superspreaders'.

It's a lose-lose for public health officialdom and legacy wokesters, if there's ever was one.

Question is--why are they fighting this fight?

Why?

Because they cannot - ever - admit to being wrong or in error in the slightest, since they operate on the belief that doing so erodes public trust.

Since "gay = intrinsically Good", nothing associated with "gay" can be Bad. So much the worse for the facts.

I see that, and I still find it stupid.
