If he is not gay then explain about the manuscript that Jermaine Stewart had written about the guys he had sex with. When Jermaine passed away so did the manuscript. It's long been told Magic was buying Jermaine a lot of expensive gifts and such as well. Draw your own conclusions..I personally think he is still in the closet.
As a health professional who was only born in the 80s I became very interested in the first cases of the disease and its spread. The tiny amount of cases of heterosexual men who had the virus at the time you mentioned were almost certainly haemophiliacs or Haitian immigrants where the disease was spread by returning immigrants who had gone to work in what was then called Zaire in Africa (where it seems the disease jumped species from apes to humans through the butchering of 'bush meat') Zaire was a colony of Belgium and they gained independence but needed educated French speaking people of sub-saharan decent to take the Belgians places. They recruited Haitians who brought the virus back to Haiti. At the beginning of the transmission period in the 70s it was mostly gay men who had the virus. It then spread from blood transfusions to haemophiliacs, transfusion recipients and drug addicts who all seemed to develop AIDS faster than people who caught it from sex. Probably due to direct injection into the blood. Not everyone who caught the disease sexually has the 10 year incubation period though, some gets AIDS within a year and some have a genetic ability to control the virus indefinitely.
False. It was not spread predominantly by the immigrant populations you mention or in this way. There were plenty of political and socio rationale to pin and blame specific communities for HIV/AIDS. That does not mean it was fact.
@tweetypie1978 You need to watch *THE ORIGIN OF AIDS.* *Ed Hooper* is your guy.... You will learn a lot. HIV, the contributing virus of AIDS was first isolated by Professor Montagnier, in 1983. During the 50’s the Polio V^^^xI:n3 was contaminated with a monkey virus, SV40. Something similar could have happened to AIDS. SIV, - the ancestor of AIDS virus, - is also a monkey virus. This fact is connected to the mass POLIO vaxxI:n^tion campaign in the CONGO. The doctor who actually went back to the CONGO to collect SAMPLES of the mass vaxxI:n^tion that would have cleared up any doubt on wheather it did or did not contain the HIV virus, magically disappeared.. there was not one sample left. The mistake he made is that he let his Truth-Seeking intentions know by the British Royal family….. and afterwards, after his letter, before he could even try to search for any sample, you guessed it... he passed away. ..... as well as the 450 chimpanzees who were sacrificed in the making of this deadly V^XX, - who were operated and tested on WHILE some are still ALIVE draining the life energy out of them, unable to fight back. A LOT TO LEARN.... look it up... absolute unethical way of going about any kind of “creating” healing medication/ injection..... so now you understand why so many countries in Africa (and India) refused to participate in the current campaign of v^xxI:n3s this time around. They learned from their mistakes with Big Pharma = not to be trusted. xx..

Not sure if he ever had sex with men and have no proof of it. Growing up watching him and Isaiah kiss each other on the cheek always made me question their sexual preference. It was always a “wtf just happened “ moment to me when they would do this on camera. Before anyone replies with something negative, we ( blk men) do not do such things in our culture. If the French, Italians, etc does it, that’s their business.
Magic never had hiv him and Jordan got caught throwing games and the nba was afraid the nba would be over so they came up with ways to get the both out … his wife doesn’t have it and instead of losing weight he has been gaining weight.. only reason they brought Jordan back cause he was a fan favorite and money… just know no news is right
If he had all this unprotected sex with women, why aren’t there all these kids whom he would’ve fathered? (Yes, he had one from college. But the odds of getting women pregnant are greater than catching HIV!) There should be easily 20 of his kids outside of his marriage walking around?
Has their been any interviews from Lansing, Michigan native Waymer Moore? She sued Magic Johnson for infecting her with HIV, in 1991, due to their one night stand in June 1990. Magic Johnson's legal team settled out of court. There was talk of Magic being involved in orgies, which included men.
I have been saying he was dl sleeping with men for a while now-it’s not common for a non iv user, completely heterosexual male to contract hiv and those are straight facts
There lots of heterosexual men who have gotten HIV from women. Just broaden your scope past the US and you will see it's the most common way of transmission globally. Why? There are more straight people.
Its likely he got HIV while the Lakers were in France for that exhibition tournament. It takes 3 weeks for the symptoms to start, which happen to be when the Lakers came back from Europe. I do recall they stopped in Boston to play a preseason gm vs Celtics. It was right after that game that he felt sick (in Utah)
I don’t think he ever felt sick or had any real symptoms. They found out about it due to a blood test they did because of a life insurance policy that he did
Men use condoms, Women use birth control. I'd can have health for Anyone. What he's doing is wrong. Watch out for who you're dating period. I'd believe in health. 1 in counter you're life can be messed up. So becareful who you're fooling with.
I don’t think the video is toxic because everyone is entitled to their opinion. Like I’ve stated, the way you expressed yourself is unbeatable. I respect it. I don’t believe HIV lives in gay guys alone. Women account for about 46-53 percent of all diagnosed. Overall I will always listen to you. Very intriguing!
yes, women get the infection--from men. but it's much more difficult for a woman to pass it to a man, especially from a one-night stand,. even with repeated exposure, it's still rare for a woman to pass it to a man bc it would be difficult for enough virus to enter the tip of his penis to infect him. if he wasn't with a gay man, then he was with a trans woman.
@Gabriela Franklyn I heard he allegedly had an affair with Jermaine Stewart and contracted HIV from him. I also heard that Jermaine Stewart was working on a tell all book of all of the male stars he had sexual encounters with. Who knows if it's true or not.

@@AmericanMayan that’s what I always thought. Magic never had it. He got really rich afterwards being a “businessman”. I think he took money by the powers that be to fake having the HIV
I still believe Magic Johnson, at no point, was or is HIV-positive. He was looking back on a long and glittering career, and after the 1991 Finals with half of the Lakers retiring, it was pretty clear that the Bulls would be the team of the 90s...or even another franchise, but certainly not the L.A Lakers who had dominated the last decade. I think they came to him and asked him if he rather wanted to fade out or step up and make a real impact. And I think the paycheck has been gigantic. He was the perfect ambassador for making a change in the public recognition of the epidemic - sympathetic, well known around the world, beloved, incredibly successful and a great entertainer. Just like Rock Hudson could have been, if the time had been ripe and if he had come over the counter with it a bit earlier.
@@11Christys11 That´s why I think the paycheck has been terrific. Even if it may not have been "up next" at that time, a big leap forward was clearly conceivable, talking about the antiretroviral & cocktail medication therapy. Even Brian May was talking about it when they were planning the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert in 92, so it definitely wasn´t some kind of "NASA stuff" any more. I don´t really know what exactly went on, but "them" (maybe league officials and some pharma investors) talking to Magic about the whole thing, offering a contract that would gethim millions of $ and access to the most vanguard medical care (even in experimental stages) is a probable motive for Johnson to accept the role he would, in fact, play soon after the press conference at the GWF. The Olympics in Barcelona can be seen as a great popularity booster for him and his new mission. A sympathetic, always-smiling, healthy-looking top athlete with a handful of Championship rings on his fingers is nothing but a great face for a campaign that is seeking for breaking down the demonization of a disease that had become one of the most feared things to catch during the past decade. Each side would have had their fair share from such a deal - the league, the pharma industry, the media, Magic himself and - last but not least - the tens of thousands who had fallen ill and were stigmatized by the society, earlier on. Again: I don´t say I know what went on and what didn´t, but that´s what I think has happened in this or a resembling way.
0.04% from a single exposure. Now multiple the exposures. Charlie Sheen claims to have gotten it through heterosexual sex. There are also other factors (such as male circumcision, and the practice of anal sex) all that increases the risk.
Who cares?? Magic Johnson is one of the five best basketball athletes of all time. He's happily married and has three children. Magic is a very successful businessman. That Magic smile is one of a kind. Magic helped to take the game of basketball to a higher level. Much love for superstar Magic Johnson.🙏❤
I have always believed he never had it. It was an excuse to leave the League behind his gambling and tanking games. Dick Gregory explains this theory. However even before I read regarding Gregory’s Theory, I never believed he had it after I believe year 10 after his announcement.
@@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070all he had to say is he wanted to be a full time father and husband after being on the road for years. The stigma around hiv at that time no one would accept it if it wasn’t true.
Let's not forget that a person can contact HIM from a number of ways, not just sex. Blood transfusions, needle use from another person, sex with a woman who has it. And I am sure.other ways. To point a finger, to make a questional comment can make a person lose what they worked for in there life. Imagine if someone questioned you on the web, in regards to aids. Your life would be devistated, people only need a small question like a grain of sand in there minds and it goes from that and becomes a mountain of questions.
Not watching this video. Change the thumbnail. Its hugely disrespectful & insane that Magic still has to deal with these BS rumors all these years later.
@@Seek1878 Did you watch the video, it's almost next to nothing he contracted it from a woman, we have 30 years of data on this now. I would say also he was the receiver and not the giver.. Unless he doesn't have it all and this is all a sham. But there is a woman who he settled with that claimed she contracted it from him back in 91. I would say chances are good he does have it, and the chances are likely he contracted it from another man..
So i'll play gentle devils advocate here: First up, drugs usage.. Well why not? maybe earlier in his career? HIV stays dormant for years. 5:20 This line, the wording is a little odd, the implication is that statistically his chances we're very low.. well hold-up, take that 0.04% and multiply it by 100s, or 1000s of women(remember since 1979), suddenly its not so small or rare. Also those stats are time of collection stats, we now know HIV/AIDS exploded after 1986 when people began to realise they had been infected earlier. and even going into the 90s, people were backdating partners to work out who they may have caught it from, and infected. The man who is believed to have spread HIV initially in the USA, was (according to reports) a flight steward who may have had close to 1000 partners, its also worth pointing out Easy-E boasted, about 1000s of partners, another AIDS death. Its also believed many 1000s died simply undiagnosed, and per medical procedure, they cant update records without the (pre-)diagnosis before death, meaning the stats from the 80s about what they used to call the 'Invisible Killer' have been disputed as well. Charlie Sheen was a recent reveal as well, we could list names all day of people(celebs) with larger sexual histories who have/had HIV. Regarding Waymer(1990), she said she contacted him in 1991,(did they meet more than once?) Johnsons book came out in 1992, I think Johnson suspected at the time, he caught it from her, thus his statement isnt necessarily untrue. Also, he says 'of people he had spoken to', thats going be, lets see, 10-50 people? maybe? in 4000+ possible partners! I doubt he kept many numbers, so again, not necessarily untrue. Now that alllllllll being said could Magic have been infected by a gay partner? Sure. I thought that thru much of the 90s and into the early 00s. My only point, that i thought of on my own over the years i've had to ponder this.. is that if Johnson has had male sexual partners.. and we presume more than a handful, really, why has no one EVER come forward publicly to say they slept with him? Yet only women ever have.
Suge Knight actually explained how Easy E got AIDS because he died within 3 weeks of contracting the virus. Easy E got it from a tattoo parlor and it was an intentional hit
In addressing your last point/question it could be the same way even though Eddie Murphy was caught with a trans woman and they manage to spin the story, no trans woman or person has ever come out and said Eddie had relations with them.... Could be NDAs, could be threats, so many levers to use to silence people
Not sure it matters, although the chances are small for a man to get HIV by having sex with a woman, a combination of multiple partners, kink and apparently being uncircumcised increase it.

Each side would have had their fair share from such a deal - the league, the pharma industry, the media, Magic himself and - last but not least - the tens of thousands who had fallen ill and were stigmatized by the society, earlier on.
Again: I don´t say I know what went on and what didn´t, but that´s what I think has happened in this or a resembling way.
0.04% from a single exposure. Now multiple the exposures. Charlie Sheen claims to have gotten it through heterosexual sex. There are also other factors (such as male circumcision, and the practice of anal sex) all that increases the risk.
But Charlie sheen also had alot of gay encounters as well
@@DAVINCI85-i4h Sheen is definitely bi.
@@DAVINCI85-i4hand Charlie does drugs orgies and fks with hookers. The guy had the highest risk of aids out of anybody
Who cares?? Magic Johnson is one of the five best basketball athletes of all time. He's happily married and has three children. Magic is a very successful businessman. That Magic smile is one of a kind. Magic helped to take the game of basketball to a higher level. Much love for superstar Magic Johnson.🙏❤
A lot of people care apparently?
He is ok now money talks oh Yeah God is good to this man
I have always believed he never had it. It was an excuse to leave the League behind his gambling and tanking games. Dick Gregory explains this theory. However even before I read regarding Gregory’s Theory, I never believed he had it after I believe year 10 after his announcement.
His theory is wrong which is nothing but a conspiracy, he still has HIV, and that's the reason he left the league.
I’m sure he could’ve found a better excuse, no?
Wow never heard that before as a big magic and lakers fan I don’t like what you sayin but will deffo check it out. 👍🏽🇬🇧🇵🇰💜💛
@@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070all he had to say is he wanted to be a full time father and husband after being on the road for years. The stigma around hiv at that time no one would accept it if it wasn’t true.
I have no reason to doubt his word.
Lol sure.
i mean magics son is a full blown homosexual so that is that
I domt blame him for holding on to the secret its personal
Fag
He’s obviously gay it’s so obvious! Just look at him speaking and the way he acts
Your comment is one of the most ignorant comment's I've ever seen
What happened to Waymer Moore?
Irving must have gotten it from another man.
Let's not forget that a person can contact HIM from a number of ways, not just sex. Blood transfusions, needle use from another person, sex with a woman who has it. And I am sure.other ways.
To point a finger, to make a questional comment can make a person lose what they worked for in there life. Imagine if someone questioned you on the web, in regards to aids. Your life would be devistated, people only need a small question like a grain of sand in there minds and it goes from that and becomes a mountain of questions.
@Axt3 , no it wasn't rare. Do some better research.
@@musseia - I worked in that era in the medical field and is was pretty rare. They actually first called it the “gay man’s disease or the gay cancer.”
@wesa it wasn’t rare. Transmitting it was rare, but remember how much of a whore magic was.
@@musseia It is very rare for a man to get HIV from a woman! You need to do some research. It is mostly spread by men.
@@melisentiapheiffer3034 , again. I said what I said , and my research is valid.
Not watching this video. Change the thumbnail. Its hugely disrespectful & insane that Magic still has to deal with these BS rumors all these years later.
he reminds me of Andrew Gillium.
Touché, look at his son… fruity cake
Some guy’s Johnson gave him that magic. I’m HIV positive of it.
He was not gay he was just a bop
Streets saying he got it from pop singer Jermian Stewart
The chances are "likely" that he contracted it from another man.
Why?
@@Seek1878 Did you watch the video, it's almost next to nothing he contracted it from a woman, we have 30 years of data on this now. I would say also he was the receiver and not the giver..
Unless he doesn't have it all and this is all a sham. But there is a woman who he settled with that claimed she contracted it from him back in 91. I would say chances are good he does have it, and the chances are likely he contracted it from another man..
@@colinforsecs3393 LMAO the video didn't prove anything. Why are so people terrified to believe HIV can be contracted via heterosexual sex?
Probably from your dad Colin. He like to plow the man @##
You can see magis iss.. cmon its obvious in his eyes
In his eyes wtf 😆
A strong indicator is his son.
WHAT? R U FUCKIN SERIOUS?
@@Ameara-LaVeyof course I am, that is why I said it!
@@kevinjohnson3521 how old r u ?
@@kevinjohnson3521 HIV positive father and his gay son... what's your point?
@@Ameara-LaVeyyou really do not know the apple does not fall far from the tree!?!?
So i'll play gentle devils advocate here: First up, drugs usage.. Well why not? maybe earlier in his career? HIV stays dormant for years.
5:20 This line, the wording is a little odd, the implication is that statistically his chances we're very low.. well hold-up, take that 0.04% and multiply it by 100s, or 1000s of women(remember since 1979), suddenly its not so small or rare. Also those stats are time of collection stats, we now know HIV/AIDS exploded after 1986 when people began to realise they had been infected earlier. and even going into the 90s, people were backdating partners to work out who they may have caught it from, and infected. The man who is believed to have spread HIV initially in the USA, was (according to reports) a flight steward who may have had close to 1000 partners, its also worth pointing out Easy-E boasted, about 1000s of partners, another AIDS death. Its also believed many 1000s died simply undiagnosed, and per medical procedure, they cant update records without the (pre-)diagnosis before death, meaning the stats from the 80s about what they used to call the 'Invisible Killer' have been disputed as well. Charlie Sheen was a recent reveal as well, we could list names all day of people(celebs) with larger sexual histories who have/had HIV.
Regarding Waymer(1990), she said she contacted him in 1991,(did they meet more than once?) Johnsons book came out in 1992, I think Johnson suspected at the time, he caught it from her, thus his statement isnt necessarily untrue. Also, he says 'of people he had spoken to', thats going be, lets see, 10-50 people? maybe? in 4000+ possible partners! I doubt he kept many numbers, so again, not necessarily untrue.
Now that alllllllll being said could Magic have been infected by a gay partner? Sure. I thought that thru much of the 90s and into the early 00s. My only point, that i thought of on my own over the years i've had to ponder this.. is that if Johnson has had male sexual partners.. and we presume more than a handful, really, why has no one EVER come forward publicly to say they slept with him? Yet only women ever have.
Suge Knight actually explained how Easy E got AIDS because he died within 3 weeks of contracting the virus. Easy E got it from a tattoo parlor and it was an intentional hit
In addressing your last point/question it could be the same way even though Eddie Murphy was caught with a trans woman and they manage to spin the story, no trans woman or person has ever come out and said Eddie had relations with them.... Could be NDAs, could be threats, so many levers to use to silence people
No wonder his son came out so the Bible told us by they fruits you shall know them
Still doesn't mean he's gay tho.
No he was curious or just a sex deviant.
Where did he catch the virus from then?
@@monasfrom another man
@@kjthomas4553 Bingo!
In life u can not just sleep with anyone
it maybe just a case of bending over to pick up the soap
100% he was morally lacking
It is the vessel that gets it. His son is openly gay.
He contacted with Jermaine Stewart
U can see it in him
Isaiah Thomas wasnt lying
I always thought it was like Tommy Gun Morrison.
It’s none of our business. What gives us the right to even know this information?
The Florida Bill gives us the right
so u sayin i dont gotta worry bout aids when im goin in shorty raw 😂
You probably won't contract hiv, but do you wants kids or Gonnerhea? 😅
Not sure it matters, although the chances are small for a man to get HIV by having sex with a woman, a combination of multiple partners, kink and apparently being uncircumcised increase it.
Just wanna say false information lol you can get sued be careful
*Thank you for not being homophobic in your video 🫶🏾*
I’m homophobic do something
@@jarieharper2088😂
Operative word "think." Only God knows! I wish Magic and Family the best life.
My question is how's his sex life been since, cause you everyone knows he has HIV, and people kinda don't like it
Can you try find out where shes at?
This makes me wonder about Larry Bird. Big Time.
He was buying bussy
It's LA. It's rich people's party. they got all the exotic things.
Magic Johnson lied
He was sleeping with men
The legend is probably bi. Who cares leave him alone.
5:54 That means you had 6 with a man bruh
😆😆😆 no wonder isiah didn't make the dream team
Other men??
Raise your hand is magics a hooomoooo
I believe Magic.
I told Magic not to hang around you!
I think it's possible he got it from a woman. Magic doesn't show up on my gaydar
Getting it from a woman is very rare unless he is going up her butt and she has the virus. He most likely caught it from a man
Of course it's possible but unlikely nevertheless.
Shiitttt magic gives off gay energy. He always kissing Isaiah thomas
U should be ashamed of yourself for this video- who cares how he got it? He beat it and he's still here
O.04??? WTF! Why have I been wearing rubbers....
There’s other stuff u can catch , n pregnancies lol.. I’m sure u were jokin tho
Eazy E gay too?
he got it from injections after an accident or unprotected seggs
Yes. All those rappers gay as hell
@@philmccracken179 snoop is so gay along with eminem
