Privacy Spreads AIDS
- Share via
Re “AIDS Scare at Tiny College Shakes Town,” April 30: Privacy laws prevented health officials from informing anyone of Nikko Briteramos’ infection. Probably the same laws that enabled the partner who infected him. It’s time our nation realizes that AIDS has never been a gay or race issue and takes action to prevent the unnecessary death sentences inflicted on these young adults. I hurt for the individuals, the families and friends of all infected, because it shouldn’t have happened at all.
