A student has to precis this:

"The Medical Fraternity's prognonis was that the malady by which he was
afflicted is resonantly declared to be labelled Human Immuno Virus
Aquired Immune Deficiency Syndrone; previously entitled: Human T cell
Lymphotropic Virus III. The victim referred to is the now deceased, but
formerly very popular or famous movie star, Rock Hudson."

Any suggestions?

She's right - acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is AIDS.

The passage is to make smaller with clarity enabling it to fit into the
provided space. :smile:

That's not funny at all. Rock Hudson was a great actor and artist. Unfortunately, he lived in a time in which he was not able to simply be himself.

To poke fun of AIDS or anyone who has died of AIDS is very pathetic and sick!

You should be ashamed for your crass and thoughtless behavior!
