The United States Ending the Travel Ban for HIV Positive Individuals

excerpt: In the context of legislation to renew and increase funding for PEPFAR, the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, the United States Senate voted on July 16 to abolish the travel ban for HIV positive individuals entering the United States as visitors. The House of Representatives passed the same legislation approximately a week later and it has now been signed into law by President Bush.

Before we rush to the border to take advantage of this newly adopted legislation, it would be wise to take into consideration that the legislation mandates certain other government agencies to make changes to their policies to put this change into effect, but those changes have not yet taken place and may take several months to be realized.

From Julian Seery Gude (OJ Gude’s great great grandson):

Hi Frank, thanks for letting me know about the latest O.J. Gude sign to pop up. Looks like the building that was stacked against the sign did a decent job of preserving it. It makes you wonder about all the secrets that a city like New York holds in her clutches!
