Gasp. Only now is Germany starting to register HIV as an STD,  are they 
as stupid  as Canada
where they still don't do it due to progressive politics. This disease 
could have been  slowed
dramatically if it it wasn't for political interference.
 Someone accidentally exposed as a homosexual  is worth a thousand 
deaths elsewhere,
is this the rational they use? I didn't care if the guy was a raging 
queen as long as he admitted it, he was immune to blackmail.
if the guy had five wives illegally he was open to blackmail.

 The security  of  the database unless exposed to public access is only 
limited to those who have access.
I guess you will just have duplicated data, unless you have some means 
to differentiate names.
Groups like WHO will just toss the data. The data obtained will be 
worthless.
I still believe in the Duke of Wellington's remark on being exposed for 
sexual peccadilloes
"Publish and be dammed"
