“This situation is about to explode. At this rate, this epidemic could severely impact our economy, our way of life, and even our government.” says Doctor Al Dodinas. “We must supply powerful drugs to all infected people, even if we have to produce and distribute it ourselves. We must also educate people on the dangers of VODAIS and supply condoms to all sexually active males. Sure, we'll need to divert tax money from the military to fund all this, but what good is a military if the soldiers are too sick to fight?”

“If you supply condoms, you’ll increase sexual promiscuity,” scoffs religious leader Bill Mombota. “If you supply drugs, you’ll risk creating an aura of invincibility which in turn increases sexual promiscuity. Sexual abstinence is 100% effective in preventing VODAIS infection. This knowledge must be taught at all schools and workplaces, and all other choices must be ridiculed. Make celibacy the only option!.”

“Supplying drugs and condoms will not stop VODAIS infections and forcing everyone to be celibate will be the slow death of --Neo-America--,” whispers Health Minister Violet Clinton in a poorly-lit back room. “Segregating the infected people is the most effective method. Everybody in --Neo-America-- must be tested for VODAIS. Then all the VODAIS positive people will be shipped to seperate gated communities away from the rest of us. If they need to mingle with uninfected people, then they must wear distinguishing badges that feature a Grim Reaper holding a skeletal bald eagle.”

I'm kind of leaning towards option 2, but I already have my economy, taxes, civil rights and political freedoms where I want them, so does anyone know what that does to stats?
