  1. 1. would it be a good thing if everyone with HIV/AIDS was burned alive destroying every HIV virus

  2. 2. would it be a good thing if all the people infected with HIV/aids were systematically exterminated saving those who would get it from these people?

  3. 3. was your answer to one of the questions different than the other?

If you make HIV a condition that will make you hunted down like a criminal and killed, guess how many are going to volunteer to be a part of this process vs how many would hide their condition as best they could? In addition, some people would probably purposely infect others, just to rub in how nasty killing people is. A bloody dart thrown at one of the politicians responsible for such a policy, for example.

 

The policy of exterminating infected people might be OK for some fast-acting fatal plague with visible symptoms, but even then quarantine would be better if possible. Burning dead bodies, on the other hand, is definitely a good idea in certain circumstances.

it can be treated relatively well. A cure should be available at some point before it eradicates us completely.

 

Maybe discreetly marking the infected, but Mr. Skeptic's point about not coming forward still applies to that...

 

A better approach might just be to try and make the treatments available cheaper in places like Africa.
