Although fatal/sterile is a bit ambiguous (at what age? How consistently?), let it be know that I accept your graph for purposes of debate.

In modern times. Not through the vast majority of human history, even by a YEC timeline.
BTW, Fred, here's a prediction of evolution, would you care to make a wager on it? Since AIDS is so prevalent in many parts of Africa (as much as 1/3 of the population), and assuming that there are no successful abstinance/protection campaigns in the area, evolution would predict that these people will end up with a mechanism to either A) be resistant to contracting the disease, or B) be able to fight the disease in such a way as to either get rid of it or be able to live with it.
What does Fred and creation predict?
BTW, everyone - notice how Fred seems to have dropped his argument that mutations can't improve the efficiency of a reaction, after I showed him how easy it was to find examples of improved reaction by mutations?
Or have you not dropped it, Fred?
