Western Europe 0.3 percent of the population has the virus ( No Ban)
Obama said that by lifting the ban, the U.S. will take a step toward ending the stigma against people with HIV/AIDS, something he said has stopped people from getting tested and has helped spread the disease. More than 1 million people live with HIV/AIDS in the U.S., and more than 56,000 new infections are reported every year
Just my 2 cents.

Your 2 cents? The only opinion you gave was that the stats were inaccurate. Did not say how you knew this or why you didn't post the accurate ones instead, but it is what it is.
The rest you cut and pasted directly from the article. So, unless you wrote the article, tell me why it is a good thing. Not what Obama's opinion is.
