A second generation of men who have grown up knowing about AIDS are recklessly indulging in the dangers of unsafe sex. Moss predicts a "new wave of death". Sex clubs, which were closed down during the 80s as a danger to public health, are re-opening. Surveys reveal that many gay men still do not practise safe sex. One admits that while, "trying to get the full experience, I forgot a lot about safety." He is now in a wheelchair, suffering from Kaposi's Sarcoma, a rare cancer which indicates the onset of AIDS.
