Once had an AIDS test back in the early 1990s as I'd had unprotected sex with a couple of women and it came out negative. Apart from that, I've never known anybody with HIV or with AIDS. One of my best friends is gay and I've heard about people he has known, but that's not the same as actually knowing someone personally.
The issue today here in the UK, is the lack of publicity surrounding the subject. Before especially in the 1980s, it was constantly in the media but today it rarely gets mentioned but the problem still remains.
