It was later renamed HIV.That single discovery led to diagnostic blood tests that helped control the spread of a global epidemic.It informed treatment policies and paved the way for antiretroviral drugs that keep millions alive today.Franรงoise was listed as first author on the 1983 paper that announced HIV to the world.In 2008, she won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.She published over 240 papers, trained a generation of researchers, and spent decades working with developing nations fighting HIV.In 2009, when the Pope said condoms donโ€™t work against AIDS, she wrote him a public letter and told him he was wrong.She dedicated her entire career to a virus that has killed over 40 million people.And most people have never heard her name.Hi, Iโ€™m Olivia and Iโ€™m building HerWikiโ€”Wikipedia for Women.If Franรงoiseโ€™s story inspired you, like/repost and follow for more.You can also comment โ€œBOOKโ€ and grab a copy of YOU STAND ON HER SHOULDERS.100% proceeds go to HerWikiโ€™s research and development initiatives.All my love, Olivia ๐Ÿ’œ

Of course Pope Benedict, that freakin Nazi, would be against any AIDS treatment or prevention; especially if it were discovered or developed by a lowly woman! He resigned too late!

Newspapers Did Not Kill Themselves - The American Prospect New docs say Jeffrey Epstein collaborated with the Russian mob to loot the New York Daily News, then tried to help Mort Zuckerman discard it when reporting became inconvenient.

Jeffrey Epstein killed everything

Even newspapers

Gives further credence to the report that surfaced in 2016 that Trump RAPED a 13 yr old girl, who then dropped the charge after being threatened.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump - NPR

Two 13 year old girls were sexually abused by Epstein and Trump (who punched the girl in the head because she bit his penis!). Why arenโ€™t other major news outlets reporting this?

A man accused of committing voter fraud in Bucks County in 2020 says a Trump pardon should wipe out his criminal case Attorneys for Matthew Laiss say Trumpโ€™s pardon should โ€œclearly extendโ€ to Laiss, who is awaiting trial on charges that he voted twice in 2020, first in Bucks County, then in Florida.

Voter fraud? Thatโ€™s a Republican practice! This guy is the 2nd one (so far) in Philly area charged with voting in PA & FL. First one is Phil Pulley, a Philly slumlord. Both maintain houses in PA & FL with Pully voting a 3rd time under a Philly address!

Damn Trump For Destroying The White House Imagine their reaction if Obama had done this.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesnโ€™t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

Iโ€™m disgusted by the photos of Ttumpโ€™s demolition at the East Wing, but Iโ€™m even more sickened by the renderings of his mar-a-lago ballroom dwarfing our White House. Once weโ€™re rid of this despicable man, that ballroom must also be removed.

How Novemberโ€™s pivotal Supreme Court retention race could shape voting rights in Pa. Republicans have long argued that Pennsylvaniaโ€™s Supreme Court has played too large of a role in shaping the stateโ€™s elections. Their effort to oust three justices could reverberate in 2026 and 2028.
