Ethics of HIV

Abstract:
Modern medical systems thrive on their mythopoiesis. The January 1998 issue of Issues in Medical Ethics has two articles on the unethicality of denying multi-drug treatment to HIV-positive and AIDS patients. This is a classical example of the truism that the pathway to iatrogenic hell is paved with impeccable therapeutic intentions.
