This entire issue is one of the dumbest ideas I have ever heard of.
I know why the left is pushing it...but good grief.
There are a couple of “right above primary” reasons they support it.
First, to remove the stigma of MSM.
Second, to infect the general population, in order to “force them to care”.
First person who gets HIV / AIDs from a blood transfusion is going to have major grounds for a lawsuit. I would name the the Director and leaders in the LGBt community who pushed this as parties to the lawsuit individually. The plaintiff may not live long enough to enjoy the settlement though.
Don’t worry, they will keep trying, and suing, until the FDA caves. How many of the people on the panel of the FDA are up to stay for very long? If a few change, the decision could be different. The fact that it didn’t pass now, I am breathing a sigh of relief, but I hope that this doesn’t change before the days of cleansing of the Earth, but I am preparing for the worst.
