I found an article about Terry Conner from April 1989. He said he got diagnosed in 1986, 4 years after the potential risk event that he believes was the source. There were and still are the people who made it to 1997. I hope he also made it.
Oh God, watching 80’s documentaries and seeing people suffer truly breaks my heart and saddens me. But the most saddest thing in these documentaries is the discrimination against the GBT community.
The early days of AIDS is a black page In mankind’s history. No one deserves to die in this way.
Millions of people suffered at unprecedented levels, ignored by the “humans”, disowned by their own families, and fired from their workplaces..
These events constitute genocide-level crimes against humanity. Yet we only remember those days like an average epidemic, as if it just was Covid like misfortune that humanity faced...
RIP beautiful people!
Terry Conner is deceased, unfortunately.
Wow Terry Conner got it from a female prostitute.
Who the hell thought , " Gee , I wonder what a Baptist minister thinks about sex ?"
Lol! True that!
@@jonaspaulsson9912 why are you watching a program on aids and gays?
Exactly! I wanna know which producer thought "AIDS? Oh well, we really need a judgemental prude's perspective to really fan the flames of ignorance and intolerance that's already running rampant in this country."
Prevention campaigns seem to have disappeared. PrEP is part of prevention.
PrEP also has to be taken regularly to be effective, and it is not effective for those who are already HIV-infected.
Dr. Fauci has been around for a while.
That's why he's such a trusted man ♥️..
@@westindiesgalfruits2335 There are a lot of crazy people out there happy with spreading lies and conspiracy theories about him.
Still here at 81
They profile criminals by their habits.
OMG i thank you God am negative.I was a crack whore.Had 5 kids.I thank God everyday Day.Yes i slept had sex with 99.9 Black men in West Philly.I feel Blessed.God Bless anyone who has/had the MONSTER!!IT could have been me,i'm a white mothet of five.Love you ALL HUMANS we are ALL THE SAME!!Lol an i'm a Repulican.❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m wondering what happened to Terry Conner. I guess he died.
I would say that he most likely did. He did not look sick in the video. He could possibly be alive today.
No info about him at all
what of?
Dammm those shoulder pads tho
lol it will come back in fashion
The woman who got hysterical was not discriminating between two admittedly (in 1987) issues. There was the moral issue of homosexuality and anal sex, and the issue of the medical condition, AIDS. This conference was about the latter, not the former. In her mind, she could not separate them. As a result, she was overcome with fear and anger that blocked her from learning about the AIDS situation.
I do like the way the moderators handled her and the majority of the audience, while reacting negatively, controlled themselves. No violence occurred, the woman did nothing more than verbally unload without resorting to vicious name calling and did step off stage when security required it.
Her sermonizing was not going to prevent AIDS, or any other STD. It wasn’t helpful towards combatting AIDS or any other STD. (Way too late for that!) Plus her assertion that STDS come exclusively from anal sex was just incorrect.
I do hope she educated herself and developed some compassion for AIDS sufferers regardless of how they became infected.
they have a infectious disease expert sharing the stage with someone’s local pastor. silly.
1:06:01 What a sweet soft-spoken lady representing the "silent" majority...
That lady spoke truth to power. Bless her 💜
She represented the not so silent majorities ignorance and perversion. Like the MD who taught medical ethics said - she had an “anal fixation.”
She was right
@@jrawlins5246 If that is how you see it in AD 2022, fine. What I saw in it was that surely everybody at that time, in 1987, knew unprotected anal intercourse was high-risk behaviour #1 as was needle sharing for intravenous drugs, but that lady just had to make a spectacle of how aggressive and hateful she was of gay men, the prime victims of the disease at the time. The incidence of STDs among gay men had plummeted in San Francisco, indicating gays were not that irresponsible bunch of weirdos the lady and her soulmates liked to think. She is totally void of sympathy and compassion for the victims of a dreadful, deadly disease. She is sorry for "that innocent young man" who had got it from a whore. She probably could not care less about the heterosexuals in Africa, or later, the children of a children's hospital in Kalmykia, the Mongol republic in European Russia, who were the first reported AIDS victims in the then Soviet Union. (Incidentally, the Soviets hinted and tried to popularize the idea that who were to blame for AIDS were not gays but the CIA and secret American labs developing biological weapons, gays only being guinea pigs: they first planted a story to that effect in some newspaper in India and then started quoting the paper, their own lie, in Radio Moscow's broadcasts to North America among others.) But the lady thinks it's just those ass-f***ing gays! I find it ridiculous and deplorably benighted, and her attitude with a need for scapegoating far from anything I even remotely could call Christian.
Thats a first model Karen.
36:12-37:06. Is Terry Conner, from Philadelphia, still alive? This was aired on July 24, 1987 and advanced HIV medications was readily available the HIV+ individuals in 1997, so it could be possible he made it to 1997.
While female to male HIV infection is a 0.05% chance (per CDC), it is still possible and the 0.05% chance of HIV infection from female to male increases if the HIV+ female has a high viral load, on her menstrual cycle and the HIV- male has a cut on his penis.
I found an article about him from April 1989. He said he got diagnosed in 1986, 4 years after the potential risk event as he described. There were and still are the people who made it to 1997. I hope he also made it.

He was still alive as of 2021
I would say that if he was alive he would be speaking out about it
@@dunyamalibabakishizada7744 so HIV didn't effect the "L" community (Lesbian community)???
@@Mr.Majestic77no it did not. They say lesbians have the lowest rates of STI’s.
When they did a tv show in 1350 discussing the black death, *Anthony Fauci* was the medical guest.
Kudos to the lady at 1 hour 7. #freespeech
Fauci's response pathetic.
This video is unbearable to watch because of all the static sound in the last 45 minutes of it
Why does this look like it was produced in the 1970s?
The way they are dressed is like it was from the 80s era
Looks like it was converted from one vhs player to another, that makes the quality worsen, talking as a 80's video obsessed child lol
FALSI has been around forever!
that woman was right. homosexuality has become viewed as a normal, natural thing. Liz Taylor telling us that promiscuity, short term relationships and one night stands have to stop...the irony.!
1:55:40
What might have been.
The good old days when you can have debates like this without cancellation. Thanks to post Gen X people, free speech is done
When will there be a CURE,,,,
None of us know.
To date, there's still no cure for HIV infection.
Never
GOD says never..!
Apparently there’s 3 different drugs currently in development/testing that are as close as we have ever been to a cure, you can look up the drugs..fingers crossed though we could be very very close
Oh and apparently none of them have anything to do with (participation wise) Bob Gallo which is fckin fantastic news….if you know you know
Crazy woman at 1.06 was right
You also have an anal fixation?
Weak minded
@@spokentruth5909 anally weak?
@@oliveriosteinn yeah if you have an anal fixation
@@spokentruth5909 sorry to hear, hope you get better ♡
Terms like homophobia, bigot, is just used to stifle spoken truth in a debate
