This is infuriating to say the least… On top of trying to hide behind a "case by case basis" bullshit, which apparently means nothing, they're tearing a PHA (Person with HIV/AIDS) away from their primary source of care. In addition to tearing apart a marriage, they're also fucking with the health and well-being both physically and mentally of one of their OWN CITIZENS!
Since when is it a policy of the United States government to endanger the lives of the people that they are sworn to protect? I can foresee a pretty massive lawsuit coming into place here based on the fact that stress is one of the key factors involved in maintaining a reasonable CD4 count. Imposing such a stress on a PHA in this regard would be the absolute worst thing you could possibly do for their health for this fact alone, much less the other contributing factors. This makes it official... I have officially lost ALL faith in the US Government. They're more of a dictatorship than a democratic society. They seem to think they can police the world and do whatever the fuck they want and try to justify it at the same time. This is truly sickening.
