Summary: Input Dissatisfaction (Press, 14 November 1987)
The organisers of the national conference on A.I.D.S. have faced criticism for their failure to include homosexuals and individuals affected by the disease in the planning and execution of the event. Phil Parkinson, who spoke at the conference, alongside Bill Logan, the coordinator of the Gay Task Force, expressed concern regarding the lack of involvement from those impacted by A.I.D.S. They highlighted the necessity for greater engagement from both sufferers and high-risk groups in efforts to manage the disease and prevent its further spread. In a letter addressed to Dr Richard Meech, the chairman of the Aids Advisory Committee, Mr Logan pointed out that the planning of the conference demonstrated insufficient cooperation between the medical community and the gay community regarding A.I.D.S. This lack of collaboration has raised alarms about the effectiveness of initiatives aimed at tackling the epidemic.
