I think all the circumcised men out there just had a little "yipee" in their head. Not to say that they'd use this as a prevention mechanism, but finding out you're less likely to die of a horrible disease.. that's a good thing. I'm not religious at all but if I have a son he WILL be circumcised. Not simply because of this, but because it is a cleanliness issue in general. The uncircumcised penis is more susceptible to a host of other viruses, as well.
This study was done to provide more evidence to back up the previous studies which had shown the exact same thing -- good science, bad reporting.
