Montreal Gazette, et al. - HIV denial is fatal

(Op-Ed by Norbert Gilmore, professor of medicine [emeritus] at McGill University and a senior physician at the MUHC):

How I wish that the opinion article "Junk science and AIDS" by Terry Michael (Gazette, Feb. 5) had begun: "Once upon a time there was a wicked journalist preying on sick and dying people ..." Instead, the article brought us a seemingly reputable journalist publishing a vitriolic and prejudiced rant exhorting Canadians to know that "there is not now and there never was a human immunodeficiency virus."
