Now Immigrants will wait and see???

Was it the good or bad herpes? Did u know u can cure cancer with aids?

I think the sentence is a bit harsh as the 'victim' willingly had sexual intercourse, she wasn't dragged up an alley like a rape 'victim' she made a joint decision with her ex not to use a condom, yes he lied but she took his word for it rather than having sense and thinking 'hmm new partner lets do things right and both get tested' you can't be careful enough when it comes to unprotected sex and it shocks me how flippant some people are or the excuses they make 'i was drunk' being the most common!

Did he love her or hate her?

As someone that is HSV+ (Herpes Simplex Virus) for the last 20 years, I think 14 months in jail is wrong. Certainly the man should be punished for not disclosing his condition before anything happened, but what's jail time going to do? Instead, he should have been ordered to go around to lecture to teenagers in school on the dangers of getting STD's. Herpes can be transmitted even when using a condom as it depends where the outbreak is located. The other issue with Herpes is that people can be having an outbreak and not even realize it. Statistics in the USA say about 1 in 5 people have it over there, and 80% of those people don't even realize they have it. Scary or what? I'm so used to having it at this stage in my life (I'm 43) that I tell most people if the conversation comes up about STD's and I certainly disclose my condition to any potential partner. Anyway, a very unfortunate situation for both persons involved in this case.

a lot to be said for Flowers

What a b astard. And a traffic warden to boot? Hang him!!

I feel it's disgusting that people are not legally forced to tell all their sexual partners immediately of any condition they are diagnosed with that is infectious, and equally disgusting that currently a higher weight is given to people's right to confidentiality than is being given to other people's right to remain healthy and alive. It's despicable that patients are the ones given the responsibility of telling all their contacts; although a contact history is taken from the patient unless they ask the services to do so, none of their contacts can be contacted. Even in the case of AIDS there is very little representation of rights on the side of the patient's partners, the doctor only can step in and break confidentiality at some illdefined time where they believe the patient hasn't been disclosing their status and sleeping around.
Why is a person sleeping around with a deadly disease not treated as an attempted murderer?

On a similar note the same rules regarding patient confidentiality apply to those who should for medical reasons not drive. The doctor asks the patient to inform the DVLA and not to drive and it is only after the doctor is sure the patient has not followed this advice that they have limited power to contact the DVLA while during this entire time the person has endangered others and themselves!

Why are young girls to sleep with someone they have just met.....and this generation is bombarded with so called sex education...when iwas growing up we got no sex education ...we just knew to have respect for ourselves ..the woman is always the loser

Tut tut,some women have no sense of humour at all

haveing sex while wareing a condom is like brushing you,r hair while wareing a hat.

Interesting comments by Jane and I agree with most of them but linking this mainly to the young is a little naive. I've heard that the much older generation have had an increase in contract STD's.

Hasn't stopped the old slag from sleeping around though has it?. She now has a kid by another bloke she isn't married too.. Seems it wasn't the harrowing experience she claims it was. If she had kept her legs shut like a decent respectable woman with morals would she wouldn't have caught a dose to start with.

perhaps we should do like the welsh,stick to humping sheep, they would be safer.

My advice... Dont date "Traffic Wombles"!!
