Having worked with the HIV virus over many years, been involved in developing antivirals and testing, I was always astounded how people suffering from this disease were stigmatised. The gutter press weren’t much help at the time as they discriminated homosexuals but it also stigmatised haemophiliacs, who through no fault of their own, became infected via contaminated blood plasma products. Luckily I was involved in resolving this problem and nobody receiving blood plasma products today can contract HIV or hepatitis viruses from contaminated blood products.
"... resolving this problem and nobody receiving blood plasma products today can contract HIV or hepatitis viruses from contaminated blood products."
Is this correct? It is my understanding that all infusions can carry risks. Even the required wavier a patient signs in the hospital prior to the administration of transfusions contains a list of them. Isn't there an abundance of evidence in medical literature exploring the concerns of transfusions, as well? I mean no insult but, your statement seems irresponsible if not patently incorrect.
@utubeiswatchingme The UK regulators, the MHRA stipulated a minimum of two separate viral inactivation procedures (such as solvent-detergent followed by dry heat treatment post lyophilisation). Each procedure needed to be a minimum of 4 logs removal virus. Therefore, the probability of contracting an infection would be less than one in 10 million. We achieved far higher inactivation levels, somewhere in the region of 20 logs.
Initially in the late 80's until the early 90's there was a lot of ignorance regarding the disease. The media put fear into people. Everyone was concerned about drinking from the same cup, going to the swimming pool etc.
They did the same.with covid. 2 years ago if someone coughed around you, you'd be quite annoyed and afraid of catching it.. the media have a lot to answer for !
There should be a stigma on aids. It's a dangerous virus that kills people
Amazing!
Denzel chewing is always a good thing.
You sir are insane.
Hahaha you two are a riot. In here by yourself 😂
Thanks to Tom Hanks for such great acting. And Denzel, well, again, we were spoiled in the 90s
Tracy Walter, of all people, letting hanks know he is an eyesore to the library patrons
The way dude starred at denzel in the beginning of the scene 😂😂😂😂😂
The guy was like that black dude looks like Denzel.
He was spying on him to see if he was eating in the library.
Great scene
We’ve come a long way with so much further to go. Brilliant acting by both.
Well said. #truth
How much further can we go? We have had movies, TV shows and plays that have dealt with HIV/AIDS. I'm pretty sure there is also some good podcasts. I'm not sure if there are great TikTok videos on the subject. That's not my thing.
I always wonder what Denzel is eating in this scene. Makes me want to buy a deli sub
That crunch
Awesome movie 🍿
Great acting from Tom...and Denzel, as always.
Aids was scarey when it first raised its head, until we learned through research and experience how it was passed on.
Powerful
Anyone talking bad about lawyers should watch this
これ見ると、仕事頑張ろう！という気持ちになれます。

0:20 "Are you eating in the library?" 😒
0:22 "Uh...no." 😶
0:25 "I'm watching you." 😒😑
Oh I always though the librarian was being racist.
@@PeteMcCorvey He was. But I was just joking. Eating isn't allowed in libraries. At least some.
People who are most fearful become the most vile.
Is it bad to be afraid of a deadly virus
@@jackmitchelles2646 It is bad to discriminate on false pretences. They never even tried to understand.
@@SinisterMudRemember, the events that inspired this film was in 1987. Back then people didn’t understand how HIV spread.
@@jackmitchelles2646 As bad as Republicans are of Covid.
@@jackmitchelles2646 It is bad to give into ignorance.
Denzel is Gorgeous ❤
chicy did the white guy statre at denzel?

Where was this filmed??
Pittsburgh
@@Chaos_Codes I thought it was filmed in Philadelphia. Hence the movie title.
@@theintrovertedaspie9095 The movie title lied right to your face. Hence it being filmed in Pittsburgh.
My heart breaks that people died of this only bc they didn’t make it long enough. Chris Rock said the moneys in the cure… 😔
Great movie. Great actors. Good portyal of people & awareness of Std. No creepy cross dressing. No bs of lzgbtqrs. No they/them bs. Miss the time when rainbow was just a rainbow & not some propaganda.
No you miss a time when these people lived in a closet, lived in fear.
Theyre never going back in. Get used to it. Humans are entitled to live as they see fit so long as they’re not harming anyone else.
And spare me the “indoctrination” nonsense. If I can’t talk you into being gay or living as a different gender, nobody else can either. People are who they are. You don’t have to like it. You do have to live with it.
Was that a gay library, literally everyone except the woman and Daniel looked gay 😅
I've never thought I'd live this discrimination....and struggle to get a lawyer to take my case too.
