On this 33rd World AIDS Day, I remember all those who died, all who are living with HIV, all the men and women working for a cure, and I remember my friends. Randy Shilts, who died before I got to know him very well, wrote the book And The Band Played On, about the early days of AIDS. Randy also once said “What society judged was not the severity of the disease but the social acceptability of the individuals affected with it.”
