Worse, because it contributed to the ongoing prejudice against gays, a gay man who was also a rather promiscuous flight attendant. He became a one-man pandemic, a Typhoid Mary for our times. Had the AIDS virus infected Warren Beatty, who claims to have had sex with hundreds and perhaps thousands of women (he can't remember), would the virus have been called in its early days "the movie star plague" instead of what it WAS called, the "gay plague?" I think not. Homophobes keep associating AIDS with gay sex because that fuels their hatred of gays and gives them more justifications for keeping that hatred alive. They have no similar hatred towards movie stars.
