One of the early theories(quickly rubbished) on HIV/AIDS, was that the treatments for syphilis and/or gonorrhoea were the cause, because the link between the two was so very strong. There were those going to the clinics almost monthly to get treatment.
From 2008

And that was before Pre-exposure prophylaxis pills.
You, sir, have no idea what you're talking about...

Stress is (mainly) caused by having responsibility for actions/outcomes, but not having the power to influence those actions or outcomes...

Saying people can avoid stress by taking on responsibility is like saying someone should "walk off" a broken leg...
