At least Charlie Sheen put his hands up and admitted to drug abuse and promiscuous behaviour. This scared him into turning his life around. My good friend contracted HIV from a blood transfusion as a child, and she's older than me (I'm 41) and looks healthier than I do, with rosy cheeks and she is currently asymptomatic despite having the virus for 35 years. She's never gone on to full-blown AIDS. She beat Hepatitis C and her T Cell count is amazing :) Kirsty is my hero x

Idk, imo it was no secret that Freddy was promiscuous and though he didn't really come out, we just knew he was gay and the media/newspapers were printing and selling "Is Freddie dying?"as well as that sterotypical "if you're gay you have aids" bullshite. There was a lead up suspicion that he was sick even before that weight loss showed from the last award Queen recieved. What was weird with Magic Johnson was he literally just got married. The NBA Babyface with a child like smile was promiscuous and messed around? It was more a surprise for me than freddie mercury imo

There is no doubt that the superstar Laker player who had this charm and charisma and great natural talent that helped propel the NBA to a class of its own and greater popularity, who was straight, his catching the virus was a bigger shock, than a obviously gay man, who was wasting away since the year 1987, and by the time of his death was showing the signs of advanced AIDS with olcers throughout his body. It is only now 25+ years later that people recognize how tragic this was, back then it was expected, and the man was demonized for his sickness and the fact he was gay.

His writing about the condition might have helped some other HIV positive people to get through the problem. I remember Magic Johnson speaking out about his own condition in 1992.

The reason I believe that Magic was chosen over Freddie. Is because the list consist of most “shocking”. Most people assumed that Freddie was a Homosexual and also that he was sick due to his appearance during his final years. Now Magic on the other hand was more “shocking” because this is a MVP athlete , who looks good and is seen a lot on tv/in person (Freddie stayed away from the public, as much as he could during his final days.) so it was totally out of left field when Magic revealed that he had this horrible disease that sadly has taken the lives of many.

They're all tragic but the story which shocked me the most was what happened to ('Starsky') Paul Michael Glaser's family. In 1980, his wife Elizabeth contracted HIV from a tainted blood transfusion during child birth, which meant that their children Ariel (born 1980) & Jake (born 1984) were also born with the virus. Ariel died from AIDS when she was eight years old and then her mother also died from it in 1994. Glaser himself possesses a rare gene which saved him from contracting the virus and it was something that his son inherited. However, when Jake was 25, that resistance to the virus ebbed and he became seriously ill. To the point where his doctors told him that he either start taking the potentially toxic HIV combination medication or meet his maker. Thankfully, he responded well to the drugs, fully recovered and is now healthy.

For those too young to know, the understanding of HIV/AIDS unfolded over years. Since it produced various symptoms, it was quite a while before they were even linked together as one illness. It wasn't known whether it was viral or bacterial, and no one knew how it was spread. It had an incubation period of years, and there was no test to detect it. Medicine has made great strides now, but that took a long time and many, many people died while waiting, most of them young. It was horrific.
