Odoyo-June is currently employed by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to actively promote non-therapeutic male circumcision in Africa. PubMed reveals that he is a named author of twenty-one papers, all of which promote non-therapeutic male circumcision in some way. [[Robert C. Bailey]] is a co-author of thirteen of the articles. It would be hard to conceive of a person more biased in favor of non-theapeutic male circumcision.
