Ronald H. Gray is a North American circumcision proponent and biased researcher looking for justifications to roll-out mass circumcision programs around the world. He headed one of the three RCTs being used by the WHO to endorse circumcision as HIV prevention.[1][2][3][4][5] At their clinic, a music video promoting circumcision plays continuously.[6][7] He sometimes goes by the name Ron.[8]
Ronald Gray's RCT
Of the three RCTs being used by the WHO to promote circumcision as HIV prevention, Gray supervised the RCT that was carried out in Uganda.[9] Two other RCTs were supervised by Robert C. Bailey and Bertran Auvert respectively. All three RCTs were funded by the American National Institutes of Health.[10]
In 2010,[11] and again in 2011,[8] Gray published studies with Brian J. Morris.
The three RCTs that purport to show that circumcision reduces HIV infection have been completely discredited. Boyle & Hill (2011) reviewed the three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and found disabling methodological and statistical errors in all three. Although a 60 percent relative reduction in HIV was claimed, the absolute reduction was a statistically insignificant 1.3 percent.[12] Garenne & Matthews (2019) report that circumcised men have as much HIV infection as intact men.[13]
Quotes
| “ | We've never used surgery to prevent an infectious disease. It's a completely new concept, a new paradigm. How can we train all the surgeons to do this procedure and equip them. – Ronald H. Gray (JohnsHopkinsSPH)[14] |
| “ | It's been hard to change policy, because this is a whole new paradigm. We've never used surgery to prevent an infectious disease. Policy makers have to really take some time to wrap their minds around it. – Ronald H. Gray (JohnsHopkinsSPH)[15] |
| “ | It's taken longer than I would like to see these programs emerge. – Ronald H. Gray (JohnsHopkinsSPH)[16] |
| “ | The Latest Fight Over Foreskin If you were to ask me, should the U.S. be promoting circumcision, my answer would be, ‘no,’ What I do think ought to be the policy is that parents should be informed about the potential protective effects. – Ronald H. Gray (N.Y. Times)[17] |
