When I did risk analysis for the basic STDs many moons ago (GC, syphilis and chlamydia), the best correlation was not the number of partners, but rather whether or not the last name of the partners were known. HIV testing at that time was done anonymously, and we did not have that information though it would have been valuable.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
