I don't know what he looked like at all times during his treatment. Do you?
But in an interview with TIME last week, Johnson acknowledged that he has in the past taken AZT, the antiviral drug typically administered when a persons helper T-cell count drops to 500. (See following story.) Johnson said that he is no longer taking AZT and that his T-cell count is above 500
All this talks about is the fact that he is not taking AZT at this time becuase his T-Cell count is high. It doesn't talk about the other drugs he is taking, and it does not mean he won't take AZT in the future, if his T-Cell count drops. AZT is not the sole drug used to control AIDS- it is part of a regimen of drugs that is adjusted over time for each patient's situation.
I don't know about all times, but most times. I followed his case VERY closely.

His wife said he went off of them because of the side effects. I think Magic was trying to spin his decision so as not to become a pariah in the very AIDS community that made him their hero and poster boy.
