Dr. Betty Price's solution is to 'quarantine' HIV-positive people
- 7 years ago
Betty Price, wife of Dr. Tom Price, who resigned from Trump's cabinet, insinuated that people living with HIV should be quarantined to avoid the spread of the virus.
"What are we legally able to do?" Price at public hearing on Tuesday "I don't want to say the 'quarantine' word, but I guess I just said it…" "In the past, they died more readily, and then at that point, they are not posing a risk." On Friday, LGBT advocacy group GLAAD demanded an apology from Price: "We have come a long way in how we understand and talk about HIV as a nation, and comments like those made by Georgia State Representative Betty Price fly in the face of that progress, and of basic decency."
