101
- Series Description
The series provides a forum to examine the political, social and personal impact of changes in health care in the United States. It focuses on stories that affect us all--the cost of growing old, of nursing home care and, as we live longer, the challenge of staying healthy. Each edition of "The Health Quarterly" features "The AIDS Report," an update on the major health crisis facing the world today. Hosted by Peter Jennings.
- Program Description
This hour magazine format program includes three segments: "My Job, My Health," "An Answer From Government," and "The AIDS Report: Decade of the Virus."
This edition focuses on the growing numbers of Americans who do not have health insurance individuals and families, small and large companies, the medical insurance industry and government. This investigation looks at opposite ends of the spectrum to illustrate the problems, failed solutions and prospects for the future. "The AIDS Report" examines America's 10 years of living and dying with AIDS since the first case was reported to the Centers for Disease Control in June 1981.
