Most? I am highly skeptical of this claim. Iirc, lgbt people make up about 10% of the population. Depending on your interpretation, it could be far more, but let's say 10%. "Most" of 10% would be 5%. Are you really claiming that AIDS killed a whole 5% of the population in the 80s? That would be.... a lot

GP says queer friends and family. So assuming queer people have non-queer family members, that would be much more than 10%. Maybe 40% or more?
