Default Should African immigrants to UK be forced to take AIDS test?
I believe they should be. And they should not be allowed to enter the country until tested and then refused entry if they have it. My reasons for this are obvious - to prevent the spread of it. But also, the cost to the NHS to care for immigrants with it and who spread it is catastrophic. I don't think it should be mandatory for all immigrants, because that's not cost-effective and the data supports screening of black Africans is the most necessary.

The high rate of HIV amongst Africans in the UK reflects the severity of the AIDS epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa. In total, black Africans represented 36% of newly diagnosed infections in 2008. Thoughts?
