the historical an inside page editor times on july third nineteen eighty one the headline read where cancer's seen in forty one homosexuals or the next year is number patients are quickly disease was originally called grid for gay related immune deficiency initially there was no evidence that was contagious but that quickly changed the disease certainly knows no other populations including hemophiliacs patients and having a straight answers and calling it a related didn't actually described it more slimming was changed aids acquired immune deficiency syndrome at the time people don't understand how we pass from prison to another touchy kissing sex was in the air or the water just having the same room with someone the search for an answer was conned him greatly by a major different team called it meets the incubation period or how long it takes to insulin is expose the virus and when they get sick it was called it a week really understand the incubation period to be around two weeks that means that a method of stopping connection to be

tried in just two weeks we know whether it worked swiftly you know very quickly the corona virus can easily spread from person to person there through services to people touched we figured out what we have to do to keep it from spreading even more social distancing saying a home and away from other people wash your hands frequently and avoiding touch interfaces it was much different in the beginning no one knew what caused it but eventually of ours was discovered overly cold at all the tree and a shaggy for human immunodeficiency virus then we have to figure out how it was transmitted but this was greatly complicated by the fact that the incubation period p five to ten years because in effect separated by so many years it was difficult eventually it was discovered that a charity could be spread by exchanging bodily fluids that could happen on the true facts straight sex as well as day also an intravenous drug users share needles and too medically necessary put his vision and other topics a blood test was developed gay men regardless whether they were infected are banned from donating

blood for sex became much greater clarity not just a gay man but for everyone the social and political backdrop against which all this was happening was also very different very quickly come to understand that partially anyone to gekko bit but in the beginning it was thought of as a gay disease and gay men in particular were despised minority so many people thought that the people getting sick were getting what they deserved when the virus starts spreading with gay men who were vilified for bringing it into the mainstream there've always been an animosity towards gay people and he expresses the mainstream society a brand new reason to hit us because of this it was generally not topic of everyday conversations outside the gay community infamously president ronald reagan to publicly say the words aids until six years into the epidemic and his administration's negligence caused funding for research charity held up on people didn't care about gays what they were doing each other the catholic church which was opposed to birth control also opposed to use condoms to

reduce the spread of aids epidemic was large spiral of control all the rest of america either in order are trying to undermine russian efforts inside the gay community there were some who were unaffected but for many people it was nearly all anyone could talk about over time the community dinner together after the scripts reform to pressure the government to release the necessary funding it wasn't easy and lots of different tactics had to be tried but somehow people on the committee found ways to take care of each other lesbians core of the lowest risk of infection control of course we didn't out casting series on that couple years ago can find on her website at the senior dot org some people out of necessity came to know more about the virus and doctors did and eventually once a virus is understand the broader context particularly the context that could be spread through heterosexual sex america woke up and he was released research was set up to care for sick patients improved and in the mid nineties fifteen years after the beginning of the outbreak affected treatment without

the words aids suddenly have a future but all this happen much to sell because of deep animosity towards gay people according to un aids the number of people infected by it it says the beginning of the epidemic is nearly seventy five million thirty two million died and i said how much lower those numbers might have been if people hadn't heeded gay men had instead recognize deeds as a worldwide health crisis right from beginning and imagine how you today killing with his new corona virus bobby kennedy a couple who are raging in your community but there was no practical response a magic the sickness and death becoming pervasive among your own friends and family and asking pleading screaming for help but no one listens known really care for the infected and the governments of the money that should be released for helping her pack senior curator for caring for those who are sick i imagine the rage and grief you feel as your friends were getting sick and died and the rest of the world was ignoring the whole thing that i felt like at the beginning of apes obviously this is a very brief description of what happened in the early days of aids or glossing

over a lot of details to present the big picture an upcoming outlasting coverage will take a more detailed book right now of course it's far too early to know how the coach intimate will affect the world you know that merely being in close proximity with someone who's decked it can cause you to get it you know that it's much more serious in the seasonal flu it's shameful that president trump is trying to see casting blame on china disciplining all responsibility and passing the buck the states when you're fighting a comprehensive federal response is required by leaflets be thankful the public what happened early is the crisis widespread prejudice and hatred towards a despised minority oracles and what had it thanks for listening to how casting of time a feature podcasting public radio's program on customer type of production of media for the public at least in new york are executive producers works of this visit us now casting mia dot org to get information about casting
