Thanks for the ping, grlfrnd. As you know, I commissioned book on women and aids in '92, found a woman doctor to write it. She'd been first doc in her city to treat AIDS patients and test for HIV at her office, so she knew everyone who had it and everything about them.
Many women have AIDS, today it's one of top killers of teenage girls, etc. etc. But! We could not get the author on Oprah, Sally, or any other tv shows to publicize her book and tell women to be careful because the ditzy young producers who book guests for those shows refused to believe women could catch AIDS. Every time I look at Oprah, I blame her personally for deaths of many women who might have been educated by a show she would not put on the air.
Interesting that recent study -- a large one-- showed that AIDS/HIV was misdiagnosed or undiagnosed in an enormous number of women, virtually all of the white and Asian. Doctors don't think they "fit the profile" of AIDS victim. That's how badly the news has been botched by the stupid liberals....you can find a thousand artilcles on AIDS and minority women, but the study I cite, conducted by UCLA, etc., goes unreported.
Vets_Husband_and_Wife, this thread is for you. Please read Mrs. Jennrette's comments. She says it well and I totally agree.
