Jeanie Boulet, a PA, got AIDs from her ex before they divorced. She is now starting to see an ID physician who sounds exactly like Barack Obama when he speaks. The same clipped phrasing, the same pitches. It's eerie.

You don’t get AIDS from someone - you get HIV. Good Lord. [/quote]

At the time I think the terms were used interchangeably, and other people in the show who were infected were often referred to as having AIDs. Even Jeanie said that about herself. They mention the "new cocktail" and there's a patient who had earlier sold everything he had and cashed in his life insurance but then after starting the cocktail he realized he was not going to die anytime soon. At that point, Jeanie reconsiders her reluctance to date the doctor who talks like Obama.

I do remember that era (wouldn't have recalled what years) when news articles described the new situation other infected people faced after assuming they had a year or two to live finding themselves in an entirely new reality. [/quote]
