Summary | The article discusses the actions and beliefs of a group called ACT-UP, which aimed to speed up the introduction of AIDS drugs. The group questioned the effectiveness and safety of these drugs, believing that they caused harm rather than providing a cure. They criticized the medical establishment for labeling individuals with AIDS as expendable and argued against the rushed approval process for new drugs. The article highlights the adverse effects of protease inhibitors, a class of drugs used to treat AIDS, and the growing list of activists who died from the drugs they fought for. The article concludes by acknowledging the mistakes made by ACT-UP and the need to make amends for the damage caused.
