Thank you Rachel for your unwavering support of the HIV/AIDS Movement and Community. As a person living with HIV and also a clinician who was on the front lines of this in the 80's, I have nothing but profound respect for your history with this disease. Now in the spotlight, you continue to tell the story and educate millions of viewers to understand the challenges and see the future.
Thank You Rachael !
