Mask on the Face of Death

This story was interesting yet somewhat depressing to read. I liked how the author started with the scene of talking to the Haiti prostitutes(i think they are). This showed how they were ignorant of the truth of AIDS or just refused to consider it. From the similar visits to each hospital and some hotels i could feel the hopelessness of the practitioners. It reminded me of Singer's view from unspeakable conversations that those who wished to die or babies with terminal/degeneration illness could be put down. The doctors and nurses from the hospitals stopped receiving patients because they could do nothing. The population was just to be left to die out until no more infected remained.
