At the end of the study, a shocking 23% of people who came for testing were found positive. Lots of "straight" identified Black people still do not get tested, as the belief , against all odds, that only LGBTQ are getting infected with HIV. While many HIV patients are now managing their disease through protease inhibitors therapy, we need to see free condom distribution widely spread in Bayview, and needle exchange programs. WTF is Bayview Hunters Point Health foundation doing in that sense, besides their exhorbitant SALARIES AND ADMINISTRATIVE OVERCOST ?
