Ryan White, a hemophiliac teenager who became infected from a transfusion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_White
Ryan Wayne White (December 6, 1971 – April 8, 1990)[1] was an American teenager from Kokomo, Indiana, who became a national poster child for HIV/AIDS in the United States after his school barred him from attending classes following a diagnosis of AIDS. As a hemophiliac, he became infected with HIV from a contaminated factor VIII blood treatment and, when diagnosed in December 1984, was given six months to live. Doctors said he posed no risk to other students, as AIDS is not an airborne disease and spreads solely through bodily fluids, but AIDS was poorly understood by the general public at the time. When White tried to return to school, many parents and teachers in Howard County rallied against his attendance due to unwarranted concerns of the disease spreading to other students and staff. A lengthy administrative appeal process ensued, and news of the conflict turned Ryan into a popular celebrity and advocate for AIDS research and public education. Surprising his doctors, Ryan White lived five years longer than predicted. He died on April 8, 1990, one month before his high school graduation.

There's that filthy shit to deal with and worse than that is these imbeciles that got the useless coivd stab are probably giving blood. How much will that fuck up the blood supply? Should we be taking blood from anyone stupid enough to have gotten the stab?

Well, you should be disqualified from ever receiving a transfusion of any sort, you stupid cunt.

HIV isn't AIDS, pEarl. You cannot give someone AIDS with a blood transfusion. You *can* give them HIV though, which may or may not transition to AIDS.

There are drugs now that prevent the spread of HIV through sexual contact!

You can't even watch the evening national news without seeing the commercials for them.

all that blood is tested, is it not? I've been denied the ability to donate blood or plasma because I fell in to the last year of a ban for children that had been molested.......yet for over 40 years i've tested negative for any blood borne diseases..........it's non sensical and has been a primary factor in low blood supply.

I couldn't find much on that, but for those with HIV infections, there are loads of antiretrovirals to prevent HIV from becoming full-blown AIDS. Can you tell me more about preventative drugs?

Damn. I'm sorry that happened to you. I can't donate blood either because I had a transfusion 41 years ago -- at the exact time they were announcing that they had finally identified the virus that was causing people's immune systems to collapse. That blood I received wasn't screened for HIV, obviously. Now you'd think that after 41 years of not having HIV/AIDS, I'd be considered safe, wouldn't you?

I am not the authority on any of this talk about aids.

But, if you watch the evening national News say NBC for example, they run the commercial every single day!

It's the commercial where you see Two Black Guys kissing each other over a glass of wine on the balcony- THAT ALL THE TARDS ARE SO UPSET ABOUT AND TRYING TO HAVE REMOVED!
