Content HIV is a gay disease.

foe

OK, diseases don’t have sexual orientations, but
in Los Angeles more than 75% of those living with HIV/AIDS are gay
or bisexual men of all races and ethnicities. We know that HIV isn’t
just a gay disease, but in L.A. it’s gay and bi men who have borne
the brunt of it. The death and suffering have been monumental and

we have been forever changed by it.

We are grateful to those outside our community who have come to
our assistance — who have supported us and fought for us. But HIV
has been, and continues to be, our disease.
