Same here. I’m trying to find it. Driving me nuts.
Found it: https://simonpetrie.wordpress.com/reviewing/review-written-in-blood-by-chris-lawson/
It was also in the June 1999 edition of "Asimov’s " but I can’t find the text.
What a shame if there were typos!

Seems like a suppository would have been a more appropriate mode of transmission. Religion has been shoved up the ass of far too many victims, he could be the poster child fucked by religion.

The bigger picture is that someone can order a mutated virus designed to their specifications. I now have new things to be worried about.

I fear this is showing my ever-increasing generation gap (which gets bigger by a year today!). But even having read the article, I just don’t understand what this kid was trying to do.

No I mean libertarians. Why on earth would you think I was talking about liberals?
Just because that is what the vast majority of people are referring to when they use the term Lib-tard.
