As I said I did not know the reason for Mr Bells condition, but since Im posting to an audience in denial I may as well be talking to green monkeys.
Some might say that Mr Hickey has been lucky to have such a great guy round to share his last few years, and all will be forgotten, twenty years after the first government adverts, and a long way after the first fears of playing with fire in Africa.
Such a wake up call. Let me know when the penny drops, though both in the link will be feeding the worms by then, long after they realise there is no cure, (along with other chums, friends of chums and innocent partners and their families) judging by your blase approach to the situation.
Yawn.”
Ignorant AND boring. Well done.

The reality (we must assume) is that he didn't and as a result, may, just may, have put others at risk too.
For God's sake, I wish that these moral guardians of political correctness would be honest with themselves and see a situation for what it is, instead of defending someone who has, to all intents and purposes, acted foolishly!”
He may or may not have acted foolishly (as we don't know the full story we don't know if Andy's partner was sleeping around, if Andy was, or if either of them contracted the disease by something other than unsafe sex).
