Pope Benedict XVI has ruffled the feathers of Western public health officials for saying that condom distribution exacerbates the problem of AIDS—even though scientific studies back the pope’s position. And I thought public health officials are interested in helping people to avoid getting sick. The United Nations AIDS agency (UNAIDS) in a 2003 study indicated [...]
