Singapore gifted student who got AIDS rejected by top U.S. university

[RonRon]

A Singapore gifted student who started sleeping around at the age of 16 was discovered to have AIDS during a routine medical examination for entry into a top U.S. University which rejected his application due to his medical condition.

According to a report by Chinese tabloid Shin Min Daily, the gifted student started having sex when he was only 16 years old which infuriated his parents who sent him to see a psychiatrist.

The boy refused treatment as he believed that it was “impossible” for him to get any STDs as he took protective measures during every sexual encounter.

The number of cases of STDs in Singapore has risen from about 11,000 in 2006 to 12,300 in 2008, with gonorrhoea, non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) and syphilis being the three main STIs, a trend described by Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan as “especially alarming”.

Mr Khaw said that his ministry has worked with several organisations on programmes to address the rising trend of STIs among youths.

Who goes and read these fcuking kind of crap from SHin Min?

In the face place, no top US unis require a medical examination as a pre-requisite for admission. If they did, than 50% of their students would be ineligible due to gnorrhea, clamydia, diabetes, etc. In the second case, AIDS is very treatable and controllable now. There is still no cure, but the treatment provides a high quality of life to the sufferer.

It is probably not the University but US Immigration...

Up till the Obama Administration a couple of months ago, you were not allowed to enter the US if you were HIV positive. That is why the World AIDS congress has never been held in the US as many HIV positive activists attend....

Things have changed with Obama and the student should just simply re-apply

kenna AIDS no need to study any more. don't waste your own money/gov. money/scholarship money. just Jia Pa Tang Si - full the stomach and wait to die lah.

yes, that law was in effect for 22 years for those on immigration visas until it was repealed just a week ago on january 4, 2010. but it did not apply to lying tourists and illegals who flouted the system anyway. the 'gifted' moron in sg can re-apply and try his luck again.
