An Argument For Universal Pediatric Hiv Testing, Counseling And Treatment, Colin Crawford

Publications

In due course, I will turn to those concerns,' and explain my view that the need to test and treat newborns for HIV constitutes a medical emergency that overrides the most serious constitutional concerns. However, before doing so, it is helpful to put the debate in perspective, to explain what, in ABC's view, the controversy is really all about, and to indicate why our organization has so strenuously advocated mandatory pediatric HIV …

Changing Positions And Entrenched Polemics: A Brief History Of The Association To Benefit Children's Views On Pediatric Hiv Testing, Counseling, And Care, Colin Crawford

Publications

Second, I aim to offer some reflections as to why the debate became as acrimonious as it did, and how that impeded resolution of this issue satisfactory to the widest possible number of people. Third, I hope that these reflections will provide a basis for some suggestions as to how future debate …

Proposition 64: The Aids Initiative In California, Senate Office Of Research Sep 1986

Proposition 64: The Aids Initiative In California, Senate Office Of Research

California Senate

The Prevent AIDS Now Initiative Committee (PANIC), working closely with Lyndon LaRouche's national organization, has placed on the November ballot a short, seemingly simple initiative measure whose stated purpose is to protect people with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and protect the public health. Although no one could criticize such a purpose, PANIC's initiative uses ambiguous, unclear language that can be interpreted in strikingly different ways, with widely varying effects on public health AIDS prevention efforts.

If the Initiative is approved by the voters, we can expect intense and lengthy litigation over the many legal questions raised by its confusing …
