Watch: Red Cross expands blood donor eligibility for homosexual men

The American Red Cross implemented new blood donation guidelines Monday to allow more homosexual men to give blood to the organization. Going forward under the new screening policies, all donors will answer the same eligibility questions regardless of gender or sexual orientation. In a press release Monday, the Red Cross celebrated the new guidelines as a “historic move” for the LGBTQ+ community.

Unsafe sexual behavior among gay/bisexual men in the era of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART)

Excerpt:

RESULTS

''Of the 417 HIV positive men reporting multiple anal sex partners since the last visit in our study66%(n = 277) reported UIAI, while72%(n = 299) reported URAI*'' over median of 6 (IQR: 3, 11) follow-up visits. Approximately 45% of the HIV positive men, reporting URAI and/or UIAI were aged 45 to 55 years old at baseline. Around 80% were non-Hispanic White and nearly half had no college degree. Among these HIV positive men, 29% had depressive symptoms (CESD score 16), 59% were low-to-moderate drinkers, and 82% were persistent infrequent drug users (i.e., < 3 drugs for two consecutive semi-annual visits). Forty-seven percent of our sample had a detectable viral load and twenty-eight percent were serosorters at the baseline visit (Table 2). Through 2012, the median cumulative cART-use time ranging from 0.01 to 15.30 years was 5.30 years (IQR: 2.91, 8.55).

*unprotected receptive and insertive anal intercourse (URAI, UIAI)

Another Excerpt:

A major strength of this study was the use of extended longitudinal follow-up data in which we were able to examine cumulative time on cART for over a decade in among a large, well-characterized cohort of middle- to older- aged MSM. ''HIV-positive older adults frequently engage in high-risk sexual behaviors [63-65], yet most of the risk management strategies have been studied among younger MSM [66-69]''. All the behavioral data used in these analyses were obtained by using ACASI or person-to-person interviews across the cohort. One limitation was that the attitudinal variables in our study were only assessed every two years rather than on every study visit, though attitudinal variables changed usually around 20% to 35% across the two year follow-up period. Nonetheless, we were still able to use imputed data from these variables during the follow-up period. Because the analysis was restricted to men who were enrolled prior to the cART era (in or before 1996), our participant pool is not representative of the population overall, but rather an older group of MSM. A strength of our serosorting variable was that we were able to factor in multiple sexual partnerships over time, while a drawback of our measure was our inability to take into account the intentionality of serosorting behavior. Whereas generalizability of this study is probably limited to men who are similar to those in this study, the results may not be representative of other MSM in the US.

The woman who caused a big scene on the American Airlines flight, shouting that ‘motherf**ker back there is not real’, has been ID’d as a marketing executive from Texas.

Tiffany Gomas told the police that her outburst happened because of a disagreement about airpods, The Post verified. After her strange behavior, the airline had to remove her from the plane, causing delays for everyone else onboard.

American Airlines ‘back there is not real’ incident woman confirmed as a marketing executive from Texas

In the viral video, she shouted, “There’s a reason why I’m getting the f—k off”” but she was still hesitant to go. The 38-year-old woman had to be removed by the staff, according to the police documents.

The video was first posted by @knuckelslawncare on TikTok, who was both a witness and a fellow passenger. In the video, the woman is visibly upset and talking incoherently as she moves along the airplane aisle.

Certain Twitter users also shared jokes related to the movie “Final Destination” and other memes.

Gomas also told the passengers: “You can sit on this plane and you can f—ing die with them or not. I’m not going to.”

The disagreement began when Gomas got into a fight with her family members who were also traveling with her. She accused them of taking her AirPods, as reported by the police.

When Insider contacted American Airlines, they shared that the incident occurred during a flight from Dallas-Fort Worth to Orlando. The flight had to go back to the gate because of a disruptive passenger. The airline mentioned that they had to involve local law enforcement in the situation.

Official complaint mentions Gomas didn’t comply with police

The documents showed that TSA staff came over to the area and checked the plane thoroughly once again.

When the officers got to the gate, Gomas was very upset and wanted to re-board the plane, The Post reported. The police officers from the Dallas-Fort Worth Department of Public Safety attempted to talk to Gomas, but she declined to speak with them.

“[The airline manager] gave Gomes a verbal criminal trespass notice, explaining she was denied boarding and needed to depart the secure area,” investigators noted.

The complaint mentioned that Gomas didn’t show her identification to the police. She was never officially arrested or held in custody.
