You know, AIDS was brought home to everyone in this country by the Red Cross, after the Red Cross got done with our blood supply AIDS was not only a disease of folks with 'alternate lifestyles', everybody could get it.
After that big 'blow out' and the Red Cross could no longer be trusted the "Canadian Blood services" was set up to protect the public (ok, so the very same guys from the Red Cross were fired from one place and given jobs at the 'new' place and everybody was supposed to be 'happy campers').
Reading TODAY:

I'm not sure there is anything to discuss, just read it and weep.
