I knew about Ashe but not Asimov, but some Googling confirmed what you wrote. Too bad — Asimov was a prolific man.

And Paul Michael Glaser’s wife and infant daughter, Ariel, were also unavailable.

“Elizabeth Glaser contracted HIV very early in the modern AIDS epidemic after receiving an HIV-contaminated blood transfusion in 1981 while giving birth. Like other HIV-infected mothers, Glaser unknowingly passed the virus to her infant daughter, Ariel, who died in 1988.”

Also Paul Gann (1912-1989) of Proposition 13 fame (along with Howard Jarvis) died of AIDS contracted from a blood transfusion.
