Quote of the Day

"HIV/AIDS is not the "crisis" it is routinely referred to by AIDS activists. Indeed, if one were to call AIDS a crisis when, according to the CDC, it is killing 14,110 in the USA, what adjective would we use to describe cardiovascular disease which is estimated to kill 871,500 annually? Proof that the public is realizing that HIV is not a crisis was announced by the President & CEO of the Kaiser Foundation.

Their analysis shows the percentage of all adults who believe AIDS is the most urgent health problem has fallen from 44 percent--almost half our adult population--in 1995 to only 6 percent now. Now we are hopeful that Congress and the NIH will follow the public lead and ceases the bias in HIV funding."
