      In the absence of the horrors of the diseases, people do not understand it’s risks.

      For a large percentage of people, the fear of things they don’t understand, outweigh then knowledge of the horrors of the diseases.

      The only qualification to be a parent is functional gonads. Their brains don’t have to be fully functional.
