I'm sorry to read about your friend losing his life to this hideous disease. May he rest in peace and may all whom cared about him find peace too. With love from Ontario Canada 💜
And your point is what?? There are many diseases been around a lot longer (cancer most notably) with no definitive cure.. the most interesting and possibly least known I’ve learned from this episode is the fact women and people of colour were discriminated against with benefits and drug trials because their symptoms may have differed from male gay or heterosexual symptoms on the approval list…just so wrong
I lost a lovely friend, I’ll call him RT -who moved to Chicago soon after he was diagnosed…and since it was before the age of cellphones, I didn’t get a chance to say good-bye. His partner sent me a lovely letter letting me know…I think of him so often. He was charming, lovely and taught me how to ballroom dance. Too many lives lost due to slow government actions, and fear… way too much fear. 😢 Thank you for this podcast. It’s well done.

Cure has been here all along. D-32 gene. Scientists have known about D-32 gene since 80s, 90s The trees with bark that killed the hiv pathogen were de-rooted bulldozed destroyed. Infuriating millions have suffered n died n continue to Unnecessarily.
I lost my best male friend in 1983. Love you, Reid Owens.

Larry Kramer was not only a legend, but, a hero.
We couldn't have said this better! 🔥 🙌

Kramer was outspoken, but he got things done.
The guy was an idiot and partly responsible for the HIV scam.
The book “Never silent” by Peter Staley really captures the climate of the early crisis/ protests. Fantastic read!
Any other good books about the early days?
@ well truth be told I like the river. The main theory is not true or real but the rest of the book is very medically accurate
@@Gaymergal34 yes i remember this one as being very controversial
@ it is but if you ignore the whole opv theory it’s accurate
40 plus years later, and there is no cure.
