General Discussion

(which seems to be the dominant health 'strategy' of the Trump Administration!)


Then again, news about that terrible disease has now almost disappeared completely
from public discourse--- because of the TRIUMPH over it by
SCIENCE AND MEDICINE---- things which this admin surely does not wish to promote!

(I recall back around 1991-2 when basketball star Earvin Johnson,
then playing for the LA Lakers team, publicly announced that he had contracted the virus--
which was huge terrible news--
it was discussed at great length among my co-workers, we all presumed that it was a 'death sentence',
but he is still alive....... he was a local boy, went to the same high school as my older sister,
which I later also attended... Everett High School, Lansing Michigan)

((of course in 1991-2 and beyond, Earvin Johnson was a millionaire
who could afford the absolute best health care which was then available---
but today, I cannot recall when I last read about anyone dying from 'the AIDS virus' ))

Not much thanks to former President Ronald Reagan either,
whose initial reaction seems to have been
'well, they're all gay men so they probably deserve to die from it'
