HIV patients will spend $600K for lifetime care

[Guest guest]

AIDS' 25 year run has been very very good for some people; I wonder,

with " research " spending included, if it's a $trillion industry yet; are more

people living on AIDS than dying from it?

One thing is certain: the phamaceutical, government financed " health care "

industry has reached the $trillion plateau and can not maintain growth and

profit curves without extra-ordinary imput.

 

" If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines

they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live

under tyranny. " - Thomas Jefferson

 

Take care, UncBob

An American diagnosed with the AIDS virus can expect to live for about 24 years

on average, and the cost of health care over those two-plus decades is more than

$600,000, new research indicates.
