I'm encouraged by the statistics for female-to-male transmission of AIDS, which are almost infinitesimally low without contributing factors which I don't have. I haven't given blood since coming down with CFS, for various reasons, and I'll continue to hold off now. I'd love to get tested, and I'll mutter at my PCP when I get back to school about whether it would be possible to get some of the PCR primers from Stanford or UCSF... but at least I feel more confident that if I do have it, it's unlikely I gave it to anyone else.
The high profile of this study brought the subject to many people's attention, and that often results in a flurry of activity in research labs. We'll see what comes out in two years, or less if someone revisits the old '90's study with a new eye.
