Having worked with the HIV virus over many years, been involved in developing antivirals and testing, I was always astounded how people suffering from this disease were stigmatised. The gutter press weren’t much help at the time as they discriminated homosexuals but it also stigmatised haemophiliacs, who through no fault of their own, became infected via contaminated blood plasma products. Luckily I was involved in resolving this problem and nobody receiving blood plasma products today can contract HIV or hepatitis viruses from contaminated blood products.

"... resolving this problem and nobody receiving blood plasma products today can contract HIV or hepatitis viruses from contaminated blood products." Is this correct? It is my understanding that all infusions can carry risks. Even the required wavier a patient signs in the hospital prior to the administration of transfusions contains a list of them. Isn't there an abundance of evidence in medical literature exploring the concerns of transfusions, as well? I mean no insult but, your statement seems irresponsible if not patently incorrect.

@utubeiswatchingme The UK regulators, the MHRA stipulated a minimum of two separate viral inactivation procedures (such as solvent-detergent followed by dry heat treatment post lyophilisation). Each procedure needed to be a minimum of 4 logs removal virus. Therefore, the probability of contracting an infection would be less than one in 10 million. We achieved far higher inactivation levels, somewhere in the region of 20 logs.

Initially in the late 80's until the early 90's there was a lot of ignorance regarding the disease. The media put fear into people. Everyone was concerned about drinking from the same cup, going to the swimming pool etc. They did the same.with covid. 2 years ago if someone coughed around you, you'd be quite annoyed and afraid of catching it.. the media have a lot to answer for !

No you miss a time when these people lived in a closet, lived in fear. Theyre never going back in. Get used to it. Humans are entitled to live as they see fit so long as they’re not harming anyone else. And spare me the “indoctrination” nonsense. If I can’t talk you into being gay or living as a different gender, nobody else can either. People are who they are. You don’t have to like it. You do have to live with it.
