Guest guest Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hi guys, It is 30 years ago today that the first AIDS cases were diagnosed in the U.S. 40 gay men in New York City had what was known then as Gay Men's Disease. It later became known as AIDS. In 30 years we have come a long way. Medical science has progressed faster with AIDS than almost any other epidemic in history. (imagine how different history would be if medical science had progressed this quickly regarding Bubonic Plague, which is still around today. Only now with antibiotics and other medications is now treatable.) Let us all light a candle for the first victims of AIDS and for those that pressured the government to do research to end this epidemic. May God Bless Ed Asner, , Matilda Krim, Hatchet, Larry Kramer, Ho, Cleve , Bill Clinton, C. Everet Koop, Pedro Zamora, and all the others not mentioned here who courageously fought hate, bigotry, fear, and corruption to get us the medicine, benefits, and hope that we enjoy today. From the bottom of my heart I say THANK YOU! With in the next 30 years because of what you have done, and what others yet to come will do, AIDS will be cured.

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 You are absolutely right. Re: Our Anniversary Maybe some of us view this anniversity different. After 30 years, we have no epidemiology study that proves HIV causes AIDS, no proof that HIV is sexually transmitted, no vaccine, no cure, no evidence that HIV is in anyone's blood, and this masssive waste of our tax dollars for a disease that doesn't affect 1% of our population. But we do have faulty tests that will ruin one's life jsut the same, HIV positives placed in jail for having sex, people not allowed insurance based on flawed science, pregnant women forced to take toxic drugs or the fear of losing their children, small babies force-fed HAART, and those who take the HAART are risking more serious health problems due to the black-box warnings. The way I see it, this isn't much cause for celebration but rather the status quo, which is greed and corruption. However, I do thank Ed Asner, Crowe, Duesberg and so many others who speak the truth about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
