Guadeloupe Attitude posts [Fr] an article by Maité Mapangou, Executive Secretary of OPDAS-Gabon [Organization of African First Ladies Against HIV/AIDS in Gabon] concluding that “circumcised or not, any man who does not protect himself is a potential  agent of the spread of the virus“. The article comes in response to a recent news story alleging that circumcision might have a protective effect vis-a-vis HIV.
