Summary: A.I.D.S. Head To Resign (Press, 30 May 1985)
Mr Bruce Burnett, the co-ordinator of the A.I.D.S. Support Network in New Zealand, is set to resign due to declining health, as confirmed by an official from the organisation on 30 May 1985. The chairman of the network's trust board, Ms Kate Leslie, stated that Mr Burnett's condition has significantly deteriorated, and he is unable to continue in his role. He has been diagnosed with A.I.D.S., which has progressed to widespread cancer. In light of his situation, Mr Burnett plans to dedicate the time he has left to ensuring that the organisation he founded is well-prepared to communicate the realities of A.I.D.S. in New Zealand in a clear and unemotional manner. Ms Leslie affirmed that the network will carry on the important work Mr Burnett initiated over a year ago, which includes providing information, counselling, and resources related to A.I.D.S. in the country. Importantly, she noted that Mr Burnett is not currently hospitalised.
