It is now a decade later and he is still living a healthy lifestyle. His fight against the virus shows that you can live a productive lifestyle regardless of the infection.
Johnson has not made living with HIV stir him away from “living.” Of course he has the income to provide himself with all kinds of leisure activities that may relieve his stress. Nevertheless, Johnson has taken rare celebrity action and has taken responsible toward his role and influence on society. Since being infected with the virus Johnson has created a multitude of foundations under his name and business whose proceeds go directly towards funding research towards HIV/AIDS and helping other families.
“The only problem is, I would be happier if the numbers in the black and brown communities would go down,”Johnson says. Every year there are 60,000 new cases of minority men and women diagnosed with HIV. Johnson says.”There’s been millions of people that have died since I announced 20 years ago, and so this is a bittersweet day. Yes, I’m living, but people are still getting this virus even as we speak. We must change the mindset, and we must do a better job educating those who live in urban America about this disease.”
Magic Johnson’s willingness to talk about HIV/AIDS as a way create awareness is admirable. His ability and strength to persevere and take an active role towards fighting the spread and finding a cure, is honorable.
