to try to separate the medical and political issues that surround
the AIDS crisis would certainly be very difficult. You would say
that the lack of availablity of ddI and ddc or any other AIDS treatment
drugs that dosen't have FDA approval is not a political issue.
You'r out of your head.
I haven't read the published statement of the specific purpose of this
newsgroup...however, it is my understanding that sci.med.aids is for the
information exchange of information that is important to the AIDS
community. For those of us that HAVE AIDS, the political information
is important as well.
I know that ACT-UP information is widely distributed on soc.motss, but
sci.med.aids is a place that AIDS information can be obtained without
having to wade through the vast volume of news on soc.motss.
I don't want to see this newsgroup turn into a political forum, however
to exclude any political information would be unfair.
