This is one of the many things I said 20 years ago about HIV in particular and got hounded into oblivion by the nutters talking about "you're going to get people killed; if you knew anything about science... "
Meanwhile I was QUOTING the science. All these variables were published in the sero-discordant couples articles. They even published the statistics related to seroconversion after single instance of vaginal sex. People thought wearing a condom reduced your chance of seroconversion from near certain to one in a million or some shit.
The truth turned out to be that wearing a condom changed your odds from about 1:1,000 to about 1:5,000.
If that is going to change your behavior fundamentally, okay....

Are you talking specifically about lambskin condoms?

Condoms in general. For example:
HIV sexual transmission risk among serodiscordant couples: assessing the effects of combining prevention strategies [AIDS. 2014 Jun 19; 28(10): 1521–1529]
Pay attention to the author list, because there is probably going to be quiz later on at some point.
EDIT: Condom and Nonoxynol-9 use and the incidence of HIV infection in serodiscordant couples in Zambia [25+ years ago now]
