Ofra Haza
Ta pevka je bila pred leti precej znana, zadnjič pa sem slišala, da je že mrtva. Je to res? Ker stara še ni bila, kolikor vem. Ve katera, zakaj je umrla?
Umrla je zaradi AIDSA:(
Slavni i AIDS
Kada je početkom osamdesetih Hollywoodom prostrujala vijest da je slavni Rock Hudson zaražen sidom, malo je ko bio spreman povjerovati u to. Tek je njegova smrt 1985. godine razbila dileme Hudsonovih obožavatelja, suočivši ih sa činjenicom da je čuveni glumac ostavio iza sebe i pozamašan dolarski ulog za borbu protiv opake bolesti. Dirnuta njegovom tragedijom, holivudska glumica Elizabeth Taylor je potom osnovala zakladu u iste svrhe i danas se smatra jednim od najglasnijih boraca protiv AIDS-a.
Godine 1991. Hudsonova sudbina zadesila je i Freddiea Mercuryja, lidera rock grupe Queen, a desetak mjeseci ranije i američkog režisera Billa Sherwooda. Svjestan vlastitog oboljenja, Sherwood je 1986. snimio svoj prvi i posljednji igrani film – Parting Glances (Pogled na rastanku), čudesnu biografsku ljubavnu priču između homoseksualca koji umire od AIDS-a i njegovog prijatelja heteroseksualca, dodijelivši glavnu ulogu do tada anonimnom Steveu Buscemiju. Danas se ovaj film, uz Friedkinov Cruising (Gluvarenje), smatra pionirskim pokušajem da se o homoseksualnosti i AIDS-u progovori otvoreno i bez zadrške.
Posljednja u nizu tragedija slavnih dogodila se 29. februara ove godine, kada je od iste bolesti preminula i popularna izraelska pjevačica Ofra Haza.
Hvala … :((((

Kaj to pomeni?

Aha … Pa se mi sploh ni zdela taka …

Marriage
On 15 July 1997 Haza married businessman Doron Ashkenazi. They had no children together. Ashkenazi died on Saturday, April 7, 2001, of an overdose of crystallized cocaine[2], leaving behind a daughter from his previous marriage, and a 14 year old adopted son Shai Ashkenazi. [3] He was suspected of having infected Haza with the HIV/AIDS virus. His family did an autopsy test after his death but refused to reveal the results.
Death
Ofra Haza died at the age of 42 on the 23rd February 2000 – the cause being widely reported as organ failure or pneumonia, reportedly arising from HIV/AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) complications. Her family declined to confirm or deny these reports, however, stating that it was Haza’s wish that the matter should remain private. There was considerable media interest into the circumstances of her death.
“
Although initial reports suggested that Haza was only suffering from pneumonia or an extended bout with the flu, The Jerusalem Post reports that her condition rapidly deteriorated after she entered the hospital. By the end, Haza was unconscious after suffering liver and kidney failure and was said to be receiving intravenous drug treatment. Administrators at Sheba Hospital said that Haza’s heart finally stopped beating on Wednesday because of an abnormal increase in the amount of hydrogen in her body.[4]”
After Haza’s death was announced, Israeli radio stations played non-stop retrospectives of her music and Prime Minister Ehud Barak praised her work as a cultural emissary, commenting that she also represented the Israeli success story – “Ofra emerged from the Hatikvah slums to reach the peak of Israeli culture. She has left a mark on us all”.
In December 2007, Israel’s Channel 10 disclosed previously confidential medical records affirming that Ashkenazi contracted the virus between 1992 and 1993 and Haza contracted the disease between 1995 and 1997. The two met in 1996.
Burno življenje, seveda, pa droge, kako hitro ste vsi pripravljeni verjet slabe stvari, da vas ni sram! Kako to, da nihče ni npr. vprašal, če se je okužila v bolnišnici s transfuzijo?
Nekako je obveljala verzija, da naj bi jo okužil njen mož, njena edina ljubezen v življenju (spoznala ga je šele v drugi polovici tridesetih), ki naj bi vedel za svojo okužbo že leta prej. Njena družina ga je nameravala tožiti, a je potem umrl kmalu za svojo ženo.
vse kar je ven iz kalupa je problem za ljudske množice :))
Hm… no v resnici jo je pobrala odpoved jeter in ledvic… kar je kar nekam sumljivo pogost zaplet pri bolnikih, ki jemljejo zdravila za HIV. Tega je na srečo sicer precej manj in vedno manj, ker se v zadnjem času poizkuša uporabljati čimmanjše koncentracije (in ne strategije “hit fast, hit hard” iz devetdesetih, ki je pod rušo verjetno spravila več ljudi kot sam AIDS).
Je pa to ena statistika, ki se jo zelo nerado reklamira, ker nekako ni politično korektna uradna linija je “zdravila – vse super”.
