Straight Slate Wants Health
Cards; Haughton Says 'Nonsense'
News One News Service
City Health Director Dr. James Haughton
says health cards are "nonsense." They
are only good for the day they are issued.
Dr. Haughton says some countries give
prostitutes health cards, but she could contract gonorrhea the next day and transmit
the disease for the remaining life of the
health card.
Dr. Haughton's remarks came in
response to Dr. Robert Feldtman's statements before Houston City Council calling for testing for Acquired Immune
Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and the issuance of health cards for anyone working
with food, in blood banks, or in schools.
Dr. Feldtman told City Council on Wednesday that AIDS can be transmitted
through any of the bodily fluids including
sweat. Dr. Feldtman said that the health
cards should be issued only to those found
Providence
Deletes 'Sexual
Orientation'
from Ordinance
From "Gay Community News"
(Boston)
The Providence, R.I., City Council voted
Sept. 5 to delete all references to sexual
orientation from a general antidiscrimination ordinance.
The decision came after an evening of
"posturing and maneuvering," reported
correspondent Mark O'Malley.
"I do not believe that we as a legislative
body ought to be legislating a type of
behavior," said Councilor Thomas
Glavin.
Opponents of the inclusion of discrimination protection for gay people cited religious and "moral" reasons for their
stance.
"Don't they (the potential discriminators) have rights? Where are their rights?"
demanded Josephine DiRuzzo, her voice
cracking with emotion.
The bill was deadlocked 7-7 but, when
sexual orientation was deleted, it passed
8-6.
to be free of the AIDS virus.
O.J. Striegler, a Straight Slate Candidate for City Council at-large Position 4,
asked City Council to reinstate the 1978
ordinance requiring health cards and add
the inclusion of AIDS screening.
