It’s sickening to see the division and hate this president has spewed and created among U.S citizens. It’s even more sickening to see it continue to be acceptable by SO many that just turn a blind eye without heartfelt decency for humanity . This presidency is such a painful shameful embarrassment to most of who care. S. Pike Modesto,Ca
I am on Medicare now, and my drug charges are covered, The intent of the trump adminsitration is the definition of evil, and is tantamount to murdering anyone who would, as a result of implementation of such draconian policies, suffer the loss of protective medications, and therefore succumb to the virus running rampant.
If the government takes away or makes even more harder the treatment of my disease and to obtain medical care, if the Social Contract is broken here even more, I cannot promise what I will do nor a good outcome. All bets are off as far as TasP.
What is wrong with these morons in the Trump administration. This moron has done nothing but taken this once Great Country back towards the dark ages. Rolling back all sort of protections in the name of paying back their corporate masters. This is nothing more than profit and pure greed. "that are used to increase profit margins for other drug therapies." Trump and his cronies have to go. The US can not survive much more of his policies. The world is looking at the US and laughing.
I don't know when I was infected, but when the test came out in 1985, I was poz. At the time we had a president that felt like AIDS was killing all of the "right" people, and was followed by a president that felt the same way. I survived them all. Let's hope that not too much damage is done in the next 2 years with this waste of human flesh in the WH. This is typical Republicanism, money is more important than people. SAD...
I contracted HIV as a teen over 30 years ago. It became full blown AIDS in ‘93 and it was a death sentence. In ‘94 I was down to 7 t-cells and had meningitis and toxoplasmosis and the same time and had a stroke. I was 24 years old. I survived but I was paralyzed. In ‘95 protease inhibitors were discovered I was put on a clinical trail that would change my life for the better. To make it more difficult to get these meds would be sending us back to the dark ages.
All of you people who voted for trump are getting what you voted for. I only hope it doesn't affect my HIV meds prescriptions.

I see people every day who are able to work, raise families and take care of themselves because of the medications on this list. HIV is a manageable illness with current medication therapies, and so many can live full lives and be productive citizens with meds. I'm horrified that they want the insurance companies to have MORE control over the treatments people receive. INSURANCE COMPANIES ARE NOT DOCTORS. LET THE DOCTORS PRACTICE MEDICINE.
