Bono Talks AIDS in America

 
        









 





  Rock star Bono visited Oakland, California on Friday, called it the new epicenter of HIV in America and demanded that political leaders address the high rate of new HIV infections among African Americans. This is the first time that Bono, who travels the globe combating HIV and poverty, has focused on the U.S. AIDS epidemic.

    "I recently met a guy who is negative. I did tell him about my status and he decided to kiss me anyway (we didn't go further than that). But a day later, he called and said that he actually had a mouth ulcer that time when we kissed and he was very worried. Asked if he can get the virus from me that way. For that moment, I felt so insulted and yet I felt so bad. It was my first time having a contact with a "negative" guy."
