Gay Community Calls for End to US Policy Banning Blood Donations

 

Members of the gay community in the U.S. are calling for the lifting of a federal ban on blood donations by gay.

After this week's shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, thousands of homosexuals lined up to donate blood to survivors. However, they were turned away because of U.S. government rules that prohibit gay men from giving blood.

 
 

In the wake of the shootings, the policy is causing anger and outrage among gays.

 
 

The policy was put in place in the 1980s during the AIDS epidemic, and it barred gay and bisexual men from donating blood out of fear that they were at high risk of being HIV-positive and could contaminate the blood supply.

 
 

Public health advocates, who argued for lifting the blood donation ban last year, say the policy does not keep pace with some recent scientific developments to safeguard the blood supply against HIV.

 
 

Sean Cahill, director of health policy research at the Fenway Institute in Boston, said the revised policy is still unfair.

 
 

According to Cahill, the so-called nucleic acid test is now available to detect the presence of HIV in a pint of blood in less than two weeks, compared with the months it used to take. The test is performed on all blood samples to make sure they don't contain the virus.

Các thành viên của cộng đồng đồng tính ở Mỹ đang kêu gọi cho việc dỡ bỏ lệnh cấm liên bang về hiến máu của người đồng tính.
Sau khi chụp trong tuần này tại một hộp đêm đồng tính ở Orlando, Florida, hàng ngàn người đồng tính xếp hàng để hiến máu để sống sót. Tuy nhiên, họ bị từ chối bởi vì các quy tắc của chính phủ Hoa Kỳ cấm đàn ông đồng tính từ hiến máu.Trong sự trỗi dậy của các vụ nổ súng, chính sách này đang gây ra sự giận dữ và phẫn nộ về những người đồng tính.Chính sách này đã được đưa ra vào những năm 1980 trong đại dịch AIDS, và nó bị cấm đàn ông đồng tính và lưỡng tính từ hiến máu chỉ vì sợ rằng họ có nguy cơ cao bị nhiễm HIV dương tính và có thể gây ô nhiễm nguồn cung cấp máu.Bảo vệ sức khỏe công cộng, người ủng hộ cho dỡ bỏ lệnh cấm hiến máu năm ngoái, nói rằng chính sách này không bắt kịp với một số phát triển khoa học gần đây để bảo vệ các nguồn cung cấp máu chống lại HIV.Sean Cahill (đây là tên riêng), giám đốc nghiên cứu chính sách y tế tại Viện Fenway ở Boston, cho biết các chính sách đã được điều chỉnh vẫn không công bằng.Theo Cahill, xét nghiệm acid nucleic cái gọi là bây giờ đã có để phát hiện sự hiện diện của HIV trong một nửa lít máu trong vòng chưa đầy hai tuần, so với các tháng nó được sử dụng để thực hiện. Xét nghiệm này được thực hiện trên tất cả các mẫu máu để đảm bảo chúng không chứa virus.

Read the article about a type of art. Are the sentences true or false? Write T or F.

When we think of art, we normally picture something which can exist for centuries. But there has always been a type of art which doesn't last. This is often referred to as 'temporary' art. Sculptures which are made of snow or ice, paintings in coloured sand, chalk drawings done on public pavements: it's not that these don't have artistic value, but they are designed to disappear.

Jorge Rodríguez-Gerada is a modern 'temporary' artist, and one who gets a lot of attention for his work. He uses groups of volunteers to help him, and his pieces take a long time to plan and create. But they are mostly talked about because the final results are so impressive. For the past few years, Rodríguez-Gerada has been creating gigantic faces in empty spaces in cities. To people on the ground, it looks like a garden, and it is hard to see any kind of design in it. In fact, GPS mapping is used to set out the design. Then an army of workers use this master plan to create the image which the artist has planned.

In 2014, the artist created an astonishing face on the National Mall in Washington, DC. It covered an area of 25,000 square metres, and it was created because the mall was getting new gardens, and the land wasn't going to be used for a while. The portrait was of a young man of mixed race, and was called Of the Many, One. The artist says that it showed one of the millions of faces that represent the American people. After a while, the sand and soil of the portrait were mixed together, and new lawns were planted in its place. The portrait has disappeared, but it will not easily be forgotten.

1 Temporary art is a new kind of art.

2 Artists use sand or chalk in their artwork so that it will exist for a long time.

3 Jorge Rodríguez-Gerada is an important artist in the field of temporary art.

4 His work is very quick to create.

5 He uses maps to plan his artwork.

6 A lot of people help him to create his art.

7 Jorge's artwork called Of the Many, One was part of a new garden design for the National Mall.

8 The artwork does not exist anymore.
