My opinion, a covert Manhattan Project type gov./private collusion where BILLIONs of $$$ were diverted from other research(AKA cancer) and perhaps other gov. programs...in order to save a few wealthy closet/open homo globalists/others around the world, and when this perverted lifestyle "choice" disease started to spread into the general population(blood transfusion, etc .), fearing outrage(and perhaps quarantine), they accelerated the research(and the $$$) to find a cure. Perhaps the cure itself is perverse(aborted baby parts..???).
If the general public knew that this type of gigantic effort was wasted on the CHOSEN perverted lifestyle consequences of a few...the many, particularly those who've suffered from chronic/other illnesses(through no fault of their own), and those who have lost love ones waiting for a cure for their(long established)condition/disease...would have revolted.
Thus the cover-up.
Holy crap! I just went for the 70’s music but what you have posted rings true!
