I know a hemophiliac who is living with HIV that he contracted from contaminated blood back in the 1980's. Helm's comment “There is not one single case of Aids in this country that cannot be traced in origin to sodomy.”, is a vicious callous insult to all peoples living with HIV.
Senator Elizabeth Dole, back when she was president of American Red Cross, and other business "leaders" made a conscious decision not to heat treat blood products because it would cost money. As a direct consequence of their collective irresponsible decision placing profit before people- thousands of people became infected with HIV and HCV-
Remember Ryan White? He died because of their greed.
Senator Elizabeth Dole is still making those same irresponsible decisions representing her state of North Carolina. She recently voted against children's health care because the proposed tobacco tax would hurt her state's tobacco industry.
Two years ago, my father died because of her state's tobacco industry. He died from lung cancer. He tried to quit several times. It was not his decision to continue smoking- he was "hooked" on this legal and very profitable drug. The tobacco industry lost a customer when my father died.
Helms and Dole: the legacy lives on
The legacy of Helms lives on.........
