  • @EaZYc0meEaZYg0 He is not cured from the disease. He is still HIV positive, but because he has been taking his medicines as prescribed, exercise, eat healthy and staying safe the virus is kind of dormant in his system.

    With the new medications now available and if a person is diagnosed early enough, one can expect to live a long life with HIV.

  • @md991free oh really thanks for that Dr. fag

  • @BasicallyCarlaa That's messed up because he put her life at risk as well. That's why you can't trust people. Always make your partner get tested even if you're together because ppl cheat.

  • @EaZYc0meEaZYg0 HOLY SHIT thats hilarious :'')

  • awkward

  • Then-LA Mayor Tom Bradley could only compare this day to one other event: when President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963. It was a devastating piece of news not just for sports, but for everyone. To his credit, though, Magic is still doing well to this day.

  • He cheated on his wife && got HIV. Thats what hoes do.

  • @EaZYc0meEaZYg0. No not an NBA star, but if you can afford it, like he could than you can expect to get the best treatment for it. Its said b/c there are children with the disease who can't help having it, but may die b/c of their circumstance and not being able to afford the medication.
