AIDS, the Family, and the Community: VIDEO: Like all people with terminal diseases, AIDS patients and their families must confront the pain and trauma of dying, as well as the social problems of job discrimination, fear of contagion, and the loss of friends. AIDS carries a social stigma, as if it were a dirty secret rather than a deadly disease. This program from The Doctor Is In examines some of the realities: how AIDS is actually transmitted; how many cases of infection are the result of sexually active teens believing that it can’t happen to them; how vital community support is to patients and their families; and how—whether we live in large cities or small rural communities—AIDS is an epidemic that affects us all. A Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center production. (26 minutes)
