Okay Seriously Stop and Read. ADAP Crisis

How can this country let people on waiting lists.

Let me say that again... people needing life saving HIV medications wich in most cases cost thousands of dollars a month are on a waiting list - Yet we can snap and respond nationally and send AID to other countries? Why don't we concentrate on our own country and people for a few minutes.

I posted a video of my thoughts on the ADAP crisis - it can be seen at http://www.facebook.com/thomas.m.donohue

ADAPs with Waiting Lists (6,972 individuals in 11 states*, as of March 3, 2011)
Arkansas: 42 individuals
Florida: 3,503 individuals
Georgia: 1,074 individuals
Idaho: 7 individuals
Louisiana: 732 individuals**
Montana: 20 individuals
North Carolina: 133 individuals
Ohio: 449 individuals
South Carolina: 507 individuals
Virginia: 502 individuals
Wyoming: 3 individuals
