Should taxpayers fund AIDS drugs?

[Lucy Hamilton]

This is because on the BBC earlier, they had item about an AIDS drug. There was some LGBT man on saying he thinks it's a "scandal" that they can't get this drug for free on the British NHS.

I think this is correct, that they should pay themselves for it.

There's a very good Breast Cancer drug that NHS said that they couldn't afford, so women have to pay for it themselves, which is what I call a scandal.

Breast Cancer is not the fault of the women, they don't cause their own cancer.

AIDS is the fault of the people who get it, by their lifestyle and by not using condoms and sharing needles.

It should be treated like any other drug. LGBT are not anything special

No more excuses. We have the tools to end the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

I am tired of all the CRAP they want TAX money to fund. I am still steamed up about all the money given to WTC victims. Life expectancy bullcrap. Millions each but none for OKC. I thought Cruz could have hit Trump with that last night. What was that, 70bil? Easier to recover with a slush fund.

I don't see why I have to be FORCED to chip in for HRC and Obama or GWB CRAP. NO MAS!

So are many other diseases. So what?

All of you voting "no" are just fine with babies born with HIV dying? "Save the fetuses, but let the babies die"?

You DON'T shoot Cancer into your veins.
You DON'T get Cancer sticking your dick up a mans ass.
Those things get you AIDS.

Deflection fail. Cancer is natural. AIDs is natural. Death is natural.

You are as strange as Damaged Eagle. Just saying.

Can you "catch" Cancer in a cancer clinic? No.
Can you "catch" death in a morgue? No.
Can you "catch" AIDS in an AIDS clinic? Possible.

By your rationale, medication used to treat lung cancer and lung disease in a former smoker should not be paid for.

Okay.
