New York Professional Nurses Union:"The New York Professional Nurses Union has represented the nurses at Lenox Hill Hospital since 1985. The staff RNs knew that no big union could represent them better than they could represent themselves, so they started their own grassroots organization. This is a very precarious time for health care workers and nurses in particular: many of our colleagues in neighboring hospitals are discovering the devastating consequences of not having a union to represent them. Our leaders know firsthand of the challenges nurses face, since they are also nurses working side by side with our members. They aim to make a contribution to the hospital while preserving the respect of the people that make the hospital run."

New York State Department of Health AIDS Institute. HIV Guidelines.

:"Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus. You may hear that someone is "HIV infected", "has HIV infection", or "has HIV disease." These are all terms that mean the person has HIV in his or her body and can pass the virus to other people. HIV attacks the body's immune system. The immune system protects the body from infections and disease, but has no clear way to protect it from HIV. Over time, most people infected with HIV become less able to fight off the germs that we are all exposed to every day. Many of these germs do not usually make a healthy person sick, but they can cause life-threatening infections and cancers in a person whose immune system has been weakened by HIV. People infected with HIV may have no symptoms for 10 or more years. They may not know they are infected. An HIV test is the only way to find out if you have HIV. See HIV Counseling and Testing for information and resources on HIV testing in New York State."
