Is circumcision really the way to fight AIDS in Africa? Is it worth a substantial part of the $15 billion that the Bush admin is throwing its way?

To be honest, I’m a bit mixed on this. On one hand, you have claims that circumcision helps a great deal – “cutting” infection rates by half.  Of course, that just means that African men are flipping a coin everytime they dip it.  Those still don’t sound like great odds.
