The epidemic of AIDS in the Soviet Union

When the adult child is sick, unusually painful. Just as I during the late Soviet Union when caught measles, is bedridden for three days at a temperature of 40 c fever and is on the edge of death. But then came the doctor, the diagnosis of thyroid, have been taken to a hospital specialist and live and made in a few days.

Will never forget those three days headache horribly, general overview of high temperature mozinis and in three days, not ideas, but these quick death and desire. In the hospital I met with a man of about 50 date of issue and told me. Are referred to more than one person.

I'm not young people already and my mates the age often start complaining about their club-some pressure ulcers-problems, etc., Meeting as a bum, and then to keep the ball rolling, because they are not serious diseases. And finally I am ill, it made me really happy. "They will cure me"-I thought-"even in the past will be good reason to beat gum with my ACEs". I found myself in the isolation Ward of infectious botkin in closed only those with "coding", where everyone has his altar. Give me the altar. Really joined the Club. They analyse me, but could not find anything. During these first reports emerged of people living with HIV in the press. First I remember is a member of the organisation of foreign trade-like me. This is the only together with aid. After failing in the diagnosis of doctors decided that aid. Li began to question. Suppose that sleeps with pants, are clean, we doctors ultimately ". I refused this, but do not believe me. And they say: "time, agot, maintain medical secrecy". In this way move one week (three weeks before I gave up).

I come my doctor says, "all right, guys, make a diagnosis and treatment of me, it may take up to the day after tomorrow, but I am going to jump out of the window-you cannot leave now". The next day, holding regular Council, where the doctor wanders randomly. Examining me, diagnosing thyroid to continue without visible cells of some of the reasons which prevent a proper diagnosis. Day before yesterday and imported here and now I am well. Is the only thing that I was difficult to conceptualize even to tell men from my experience-discussed various serious diseases there is child and had conceptualize to speak of massacres, let alone to me how they transmit and personal, agot. Then I must hold my tongue.
