in prevention and treatment.

Sadly the money is not where it should be (speaking of my State only (Florida)), prevention is non exsistent and treatment is scarce for many. We still have over 3,000 people on a waiting list for the Ryan White program (thats Florida alone). Yes it has to do with our State officials, the Feds can are giving the money and at least in Florida's case, the State is squarndering it.

Being uninsured in the State of Florida with HIV/AIDS is life threatening.
