Abc Reports On Latest Moves Against Aids

Barbara Walters looks for some good news to report on the war against AIDS in “Sex, Drugs and Consequences,” an hourlong ABC special at 8.

The “20/20” anchor is joined by actress Morgan Fairchild, football analyst Dan Dierdorf, ABC News medical editor Dr. Tim Johnson and reporters Robert Krulwich and Michel McQueen.

In the broadcast, which was unavailable for review, segment topics include profiles of medical staff members at New York City’s St. Vincent’s Hospital, the new “triple therapy” treatment, efforts at the Harvard AIDS Institute to develop an AIDS vaccine and the National Basketball Association’s role in educating players about the dangers as well as the myths of AIDS transmission.
