Quote HistoryQuoted:
The cure is all about the benjamins,.,, Took a few, but methinks that this is the correct answer. HIV/AIDS is a PHENOMINALLY lucrative disease as far as medical and pharma goes. Unless you've got some pretty significant assets, in which case, you can just have the cure. Cure wasn't around when Freddie got the HIV, but it *WAS* when Magic caught it. I even read somewhere it was said that Magic wasn't just in remission, he was completely cured. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Freddy Mercury (pbuh) would be too busy singing newer and greater songs to care about American politics. Some people are artists who transcend petty things such as popularity contests. If you are a washed up Basketball player whaddyado? But if you are Freddy Mercury. If you are Freddy Mercury you can do anything. Remember Commando? He almost beat Arnold. How many people can say that? Gonna listen to a night at the opera now  Magic Johnson is not a "washed up basketball player." He retired as one of the greatest players of all time.

Quote HistoryQuoted:
The virus needs certain enzymes to replicate. Treatments beginning in 1995 began to block several of those enzymes. Magic was treated by the Dr that pioneered this. IIRC, this treater was Time's man of the year. Freddy was in an earlier cohort of patients before this technology was available. The initial therapies were defeated by subtle mutations of the virus. Companies and researchers in the field are pursuing a cure. Several patients have been cured with bone marrow transplants from donors that lack certain cell receptors. The therapies now are leaps and bounds beyond initial AZT only therapy. Gay, straight, rich, or poor, there are programs and treatments available. In 30 years, pharma has turned a death sentence into a chronic, manageable condition where life expectancies are only modestly different from the uninflected for people that receive treatment and take good care of themselves. Thank you for the explanation, I learned something this morning.

Fourth post nails it. If Freddie Mercury (pbuh) had contracted HIV 5 years later, we'd all be talking about how good Queen used to be, and how they really should just hang it up. Magic Johnson was diagnosed with HIV very early in the disease, and after Freddie Mercury had died. Pretty much this. I have a family member that has lived with HIV for about as long as Magic has. You would never in a million years think she is HIV+. HIV is still incurable but is now manageable to the point where a pretty much normal life expectancy can be achieved. |

There are many articles about it from back in the early 1990s. Here is a sample: While no one doubts Johnson’s word that he has slept with many people, there have been rumors for years that he, as Woody Allen would put it, has twice the chance of having a date on Saturday night. The prevalence of the rumor is such that residents of Florida’s homosexual enclave on Key West have been spotted wearing T-shirts saying, "I love basketball; I had a Magic Johnson."
Will Johnson be "outed"? Eventually, probably yes, but quite possibly, like Malcolm Forbes, only posthumously. For one, while some homosexuals, such as tennis professional Martina Navratilova, are seething at the attention Johnson has received as a supposed heterosexual, and while it could be argued that it would be good for the cause of homosexual acceptance to establish that a beloved sports hero is "one of us," the better argument is that Johnson at present is far more useful in getting heterosexuals on the AIDS bandwagon. Any individual who tries to come forward is likely to be ignored by the media. The tabloids have already staked out their position that Johnson was incredibly promiscuous but strictly heterosexual, just as prior to Forbes’s death they had him ever on the verge of marriage to Liz Taylor.

HIV is still incurable but is now manageable to the point where a pretty much normal life expectancy can be achieved. Hepatitis C kills more people in the USA that HIV/AIDS. Yet, it receives only a fraction of the health research funding. The Gay Mafia won the war on forcing medical research dollars to be spent on a disease that only affects a small minority of the population while disease that have higher morbidity and mortality go wanting funding. Gays now get cash, housing assistance, etc from taxpayers just for being HIV positive. Hepatitis C Now Kills More Americans Than HIV More Americans now die of hepatitis C than from HIV, the AIDS-causing virus, according to 1999-2007 data reviewed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). http://health.usnews.com/health-news/news/articles/2012/02/20/hepatitis-c-now-kills-more-americans-than-hiv 
In addition to the amounts in the table above for AIDS research, another $15.6 Billion is budgeted for housing, care and cash assistance to AIDS patients, and only $1 Billion for prevention. Separate from that, the US has committed to spending $50 Billion on global AIDS. From 1981 to 2005 our country had spent $170 Billion on AIDS and has continued spending $20 Billion + per year since then, including $24 billion+ in the 2009, 2010 and 2011 budgets. Taking into consideration those expenditures, plus the $50 billion budgeted for Global HIV/AIDS and the total AIDS expenditures are greater than one-third of a Trillion dollars. |
