AIDS is a huge one.
I met someone a little while ago who was fresh out of the closet and complaining how long they’d spent there.
Statistically, they’d be dead if they were out pre AIDS.
Any actual stats to back that up?
Yeah, we know anecdotally that it was horrific and that the government was indifferent at best, but I'd like to quantify it as well.
