Well, know for sure that last one can be lessened if they would just stop screwing everything that moves so much.

B.S.!!
The money spent by the Feds searching for a ‘cure’ for AIDS has for many years been more than the other causes of death combined...

"This isn't a matter of politics. It isn't a matter of public opinion. It's a scientific fact that LGBTQ people face a health disparity."It's a scientific fact that LGBTQ people are mentally ill, which conduces to depression and assorted other mental health issues, and frequently engage in high-risk, self-destructive sexual behaviors, with predictable consequences for both physical and mental health.
The NIH could announce a crash program to address the underlying mental illness. But it prefers to concentrate on normalizing dysfunction and treating the symptoms.

"Group ____ have less access to health care" is code for We Must Spend More Taxpayer Money.
How can anyone not have access to health care these days.

It is indeed a health disparity population because they are not getting the psychological help they need to overcome their sexual disorders.

Ironically, the queer “community” was never healthier than when homosexuality was almost universally condemned by society.

That’s correct and then as open promiscuity increased, the HIV/AIDS epidemic broke out in the early 80’s and it’s been downhill ever since.

It’s not that they “have less access to health care”. They have plenty of access. They just DON’T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THEIR HEALTH, nor their lives. Of they cared about their health, they would not be having anal sex in the first place.

Used to be Medical Science said they were "Queer because they were sick".
Now they decide they are "Sick because they are queer".
I think they were right the first time.
