We have many articles concerning world AIDS issues while rural communities are seeing our Ryan White Title II (Part B) funding being drastically cut. Where is the coverage on the loss of services in the United States.
I have been poz for 14 years and my partner for 23. Without government assistance with medications and doctor costs, we would be dead. It scares me to think that we as a caring world would allow this. There are too many people dying still because it is not available. We need to come together and solve this crisis.

Those of us living in rural communities are very concerned with the lack of coverage of Part B services. Ryan White is up for renewal this year with a built in sunset if nothing is passed. We are currently facing a continued drop in funding in my county, Cambria PA. The Coalitions budget will be set in stone by July 1, 2009 and funding decisions made in Washington this year may not address this issue for two years (The next funding cycle).
