AIDS Lecture October 28, 1987 13/6 AIDS and American Values By Surgeon General Of the U.S. Public Health Service U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Presented to the U.S. State Department Advisory Committee on Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs Washington, DC October 28, 1987 This lecture is a repeat of the one given to the Public Affairs Counsel in Los Angeles, California on September 21st of this same year. It was six days since I last spoke in public on the subject of AIDS. There is no need to repeat the introduction already written for the September 21st lecture. I should say that I did mention in this lecture that the United States was in arrears in its accessed payments to WHO and that the President had specifically asked Congress to get caught up in this matter, especially as the world faced the great crisis it did in AIDS. The index words are essentially the same as they were in the September 21st lecture.
