Woman arrested on suspicion of spreading AIDS
(Azzaman) - Baghdad police arrested an Iraqi woman suspected of having relations with Facility Protection Police elements with the aim of spreading the AIDS virus among them. Colonel Qais Hameed said she was arrested three days ago after a policeman complained of symptoms following his relations with her. Hameed said the investigation is going on to determine if the woman was connected with any external groups seeking to spread the disease in Iraq. He confirmed the woman was a carrier of the AIDS virus after she was subjected to medical tests.
Dr White can you forward a helpful brochure to the Baghdad PD that would explain the difference between AIDS and Crabs to Col. Hameed and his men. Realistically, if AIDS were a problem in Iraq, Uday would have been dead long before the US wacked him.

Health ministry to arrest staff accused of rampant theft
(Al-Sabah) - The Ministry of Health (MH) has issued an order to arrest a host of employees accused of stealing medicines of chronic diseases valued at $15 billion. General Inspector Adil Muhsin said the MH acted according to the legal right given to it to fight administrative corruption. Minister Ala al-Deen Abdul Sahib al-Alwan emphasised the necessity of having a programme that tackles all the important issues - above all shortages of medicines, administrative corruption, children’s deaths, and medical services. The medicine theft was discovered after huge amounts were found on the black market.

Symptoms? Don't those take years to develop? Wouldn't an HIV test be more prudent and timely than waiting for symptoms to appear?
