Page 12 The Battalion Thursday, December 2,1 Hearing-impaired out of touch about AIDS, health officials say Thursday The Associated Press HOUSTON — There is no sign for AIDS yet among America's deaf, which shows just how out of touch the hearing-impaired community is about the deadly virus, officials say. Tn Houston, over a two-year period, 22 percent of thgmnore than 500 deaf patients tested positive for HTV-infection at one clinic. "It's like they're five years behind," Scot Pott, director of the Montrose Clinic's Deaf Outreach Program, said through a sign language interpreter. "We still have people who think you can get AIDS from mosquitos." Pott said the Montrose Clinic had 67 grants re jected for its deaf outreach program because there were no statistics tracking AIDS in the deaf com munity at that time. The Centers for Disease Con trol in Atlanta still has no data on the percentages of AIDS in the deaf community. "The clinic in 1 louston seems to be the only pro gram that has a formal statistics system," saij Christine Buchholz, who works for AIDS Educa tion Services in Los Angeles. Ralph Lasher, executive director of the Mon trose Clinic, said the simplest tasks for hearing pa tients become incredible obstacles for the deal Lasher recalled the problem one man had when Ik went to another clinic to get AIDS treatment. Tfe deaf man waited all day in a waiting room afteftt missed his name being called for his appointment "It's not unusual for organizations to havs Spanish speaking counselors but very few have someone who knows sign language," said Lasher The Montrose progrant helps dozens of deaf AIDS patients obtain medical and social services as welt as government assistance. Pott was the first deaf person in Texas to becer tified by the Texas Department of Health to train others in HIV counseling and testing. JULI PHI DAVE TH BELINDA MACK H/ AIDS Continued from Page 1 Elsewhere on World AIDS Day: ■ Unfinished artwork was ex hibited in museums in New York, Chicago and other cities to commemorate artists killed by AIDS. • As at the White House, lights were dimmed or turned off Wednesday evening in buildings in major cities. • Overseas, condoms were handed out on street corners from Berlin to Bulgaria to sym bolize one way to slow the Spread of the disease. In Paris, activists used a crane to hoist a giant pink condom over the 75- foot obelisk in the Place de la Concorde. At the hospital in Washing ton, Clinton voiced hope that one of the patients he met, 21- year-old Jenny Dorr, would live "to a ripe old age." Another patient, Larry Sin gletary, 38, grabbed the presi dent's hand and said he was hoping "for the best and hoping that you appropriate lots of money so research can be done.' The AIDS research budget this has increased 21 percent tins year to $1.3 billion, and the ad ministration and Congress have boosted funds for AIDS service programs by 66 percent to $575 million. On Tuesday Shalaiaan nounced formation of a task force of leaders from govern ment, industry, academia and activist groups to speed the search for breakthrough drugs. Clinton, in his speech, said, "In a funny way, this whole dis ease is bringing out the best and , the worst in America." "It's exposing some of our prejudice in ways that are self- defeating, since every family and every child is not at risk,' the president said. "And yet, it's also showing us the courage, the self-determi nation, the incredible capacit)’of the American people to give and to love."

Caruthers emerged from the ordeal unharmed. No shots were fired. Military police and FBI agents spoke by telephone with the man beginning about 9 a.m. An Army chaplain and psy chiatrist also were on hand, and another co-worker also was in volved in the negotiations at the request of the gunman, Simon said.
