Are they 100% effective, no nothing is. Most of the reported pregnancies that results with condom use is user error or, "the one night we we're out". Condoms like alcohol should be bought in sufficient quantities. The trips to the store to buy more beer results in a lot of DWI's. Condoms are very effective at preventing HIV infections.

Thousands of health care workers must now be running for HIV tests because their latex gloves didn't protect them from the virus. So latex is porous to the AIDS virus?

All the information I've seen says the same thing: latex condoms work to prevent HIV/AIDS; sheep intestine ones don't. Verifiable information either way would be useful.

Many years ago, there were condoms made out of sheep intestine lining, which were porous to viruses, but I am sure that you are absolutely wrong concerning the latex. And I love satements starting with 'anyone with half a brain knows...', because the statement is most often easily nullified by 'anyone with a complete brain'.

The aid's virus is small enough to pass right through the latex used in condomes thus transmitting the virus regardless if the latex is there or not.
