I heard it won't be used in the USA version because they are worried it will upset kids but I think in todays world they probably know all about it anyway. And I would rather kids learnt about HIV off Sesame Street then from less-desrible sources.

That sounds a bit unusual for a puppet considering they don't usually go into that side of their personilites.

Its just to educate the kids in south africa i heard.

HIV isn't only spead sexually tho, so there are other ways of going about it without offending people

have they started the series with it yet?
they could have him have had a dodgy blood transfusion and he baecame a poorly muppet because of it!
