57 A DAY
They are young, often broke, sometimes in love. They come in quietly. Walk-in clinics, anonymous forms. Every day, 57 more of them.
The virus isn’t new. Its targets are. Fifteen. Seventeen. Twenty-two. Their blood is telling the truth faster than their government can listen.
Congress remains unmoved. The halls are preoccupied with ceremonies of allegiance.
There'll be indignant speeches. A task force. A ribbon. And another 57 tomorrow.
