I really dislike this campaign/propaganda that's going around talking about the "prevention" of SCD! SCD is not like HIV/AIDS or some type of cancer. Safe sex won't stop it & you shouldn't have to worry about who you fall in love with. The focus needs to be on improving treatment & finding a cure, not telling people to be careful who they fall in love with, which is essentially what's being said. Money & efforts need to be re-focused. We need to stop being lazy about this!!
