This photo series illustrates the entire process of a circumcision.
A local anesthetic is applied, and after a few short minutes, the
area is numb. The baby has fallen asleep before the procedure
begins a minute later. (And, he slept through the whole thing.)
These photos are not for everyone, especially those squeamish about
surgical procedures, or who are against circumcision as a general
practice. It is not my position to weigh in on the controversy.
However, the front page of the Wall Street Journal on July 5, 2005 shows
a Study Showing Circumcision Reduces AIDS Risk by 70%.
Also, the New York Times addresses the issue in an article titled,
Circumcision Studied in Africa as AIDS Preventive
July 2009 has this article supporting the same data, although with a twist.
