The Bay Area Reporter front page, 13 August 1998.
The headline ‘No obits’ is written in red above the lead story.

The Bay Area Reporter front page, 13 August 1998. The headline ‘No obits’ is written in red above the lead story.

27 years ago, two years after the introduction of effective HIV treatment, the Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco’s lesbian and gay community newspaper, ran ‘No Obits’ as its headline.
It was the first edition not to report an AIDS death in almost 15 years.

A white panel has been pinned over a panel of the quilt.
There is a note attached which reads:
This panel was made by a friend for a friend.
The parents do not want this panel to be shown anywhere.
The stigma still exists.
Until this changes this panel will remain covered. 
A red ribbon is not enough. 
The quilt is not enough. 
What will it take?
Attitudes must change.

A white panel has been pinned over a panel of the quilt. There is a note attached which reads: This panel was made by a friend for a friend. The parents do not want this panel to be shown anywhere. The stigma still exists. Until this changes this panel will remain covered. A red ribbon is not enough. The quilt is not enough. What will it take? Attitudes must change.

One of the most moving panels in the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt is the one that no-one sees.
It remains covered up because the parents of the person who died are ashamed.
HIV stigma creates barriers to testing and treatment.
It perpetuates the epidemic.

Born on 10 June 1945, when he died on 4 July 1982, he was the first named person to die in the UK of an AIDS-related illness, hence @tht.org.uk named in his memory
