(AUSTIN) Indiana health officials say there are two dozen new HIV cases in southeastern Indiana, bringing the outbreak’s total cases to 130.
The Indiana State Department of Health said Friday there are now 120 confirmed HIV cases and 10 preliminary positive cases. That’s up from 106 last week.
Those infected either live in Scott County or have ties to the area. The outbreak among intravenous drug users is centered in the city of Austin.

This worries me. I live 6 miles or so from Austin and Scott county aint big by no means. My interpretation is that 120 people who were previously engaged in criminal activity and suffering from mental instability that comes from heavy hard drug use were just handed "death sentences" (at least in their minds) and at some point will feel they have nothing lose in pursuit of whatever goal they have set for themselves. Theft is extremely high in the county. People already lose their minds at an alarming rate in today's society it seems.
This is why I stay armed all the time. I may have to fold and finally get my LTCH and add CC of my 1911 to my open carry of the .36 Navy. Sure do wish HB 1144 would have went to the Governor instead if the SBS bill.
What are your thoughts on this meteoric rise of HIV cases? We had 7 in January and 130 in April.
