The parallels between AIDS/HIV and COVID-19 and the virus that causes it are stark. But the differences are striking, too.

The organization Who's Positive stopped operating several years ago. As a result, Tom Donohue, founder has decided to close and delete this group. We're proud of our accomplishments and the vast amount of people that we have reached. Thank you for your many years of support.
My name is Tom Donohue , I’m HIV-positive now for 14 years. I have been intimately involved at times as much as directly affecting policy and closing the longest running HIV/AIDS org in the US (NAPWA) today it saddens me that after nearly a year of requests (even certified letters) that I am preparing to publish supporting documentation and public questions about the operations surrounding “CHERRY” a weekend run DC circuit type party that acts as a HIV funding raising org. This organization of which I’ve been involved with for a few years has refused to not only respond to my private inquiries but to address its own discrimination towards myself, (a member of its own community living with HIV who it raises the funds to support) and who has donated countless hours of in-kind photography and videography services. I now publicly implore the Board of Directors to submit a response to me to the letters I have sent legally requesting the org to supply me with copies of tax documents and response to other matters raised. As a member of this under represented community and member of the final board of Trustees at NAPWA (which provided a great deal of exposure to non-profit related matters) I feel obligated to investigate some concerns I’ve shared with them and questions of matters personally seen by me however I am unable to due to their refusal to respond. I have asked and asked hoping to avoid raising a more public concern and involving myself however my increasing concern has increased with their silence. So prior to sharing my letters and supporting documentation I respectfully and unfortunately publicly ask the Board of Directors to immediately respond in writing submitting the requested materials and response no later than December 15 otherwise I will not only share the letter I will also share supporting documentation of issues I’ve personally raised with them. I will also begin to take steps in asking for a review of its financial and non-profit requirements necessary to remain a non-profit organization. It saddens me and brings me extreme grief to bring my concerns public however I must take steps to assure the organization is properly executing its bylaws and following necessary non-profit legal requirements. Shame on them for ignoring my very private inquiries of which will now bring focus to their operations rather than sitting down privately to work through these matters and hopefully solve them privately assuring the public’s support and increasing the organizations efforts to a great cause (and one very personal to myself) for years to come.
Everyday should be National HIV Testing Day here's your annual reminder to be tested. However being tested every 6 months or even 3 months is a good idea if your s*xually active and putting yourself at risk.
This day 26 years years ago this world lost an young man who at at a young age was diagnosed with AIDS and who fought a fight a nearly 5 1/2 year fight that changed the AIDS epidemic. Rest in peace Ryan White.
