They make it still look like people are dying in the streets of AIDS but the death toll from 2009 was approximately 17,000. I don’t wish that on anyone but it is preventable.

Yet cancer deaths for 2012 are expected to be: 577,190.

That’s an enormous difference.

I would say we spend too much on HIV/AIDS when we should put the money in cancer research, I could care less what Oprah thinks.

Traffic fatalities in 2011 were approximately, 32,000. Worse than AIDS as well.

The only reason many more aren't dying is due to expensive drug treatments heavily subsidized by taxpayers.

AIDS isn’t a disease, it’s a Civil Rights status.
