HIV Testing Efforts, the German Community in Baltimore, and Movie Madness
Description
We talk about what’s being done to reduce HIV rates in Baltimore, how WWI shaped Baltimore's large German community, and what movies to see this month.
Today is ‘National HIV Testing Day.’ In Baltimore, 1 in 43 people live with the virus. We talk about what’s being done to reduce HIV rates in Baltimore, challenges to getting more people tested and into treatment, and plans to test at least 800 people tomorrow.
Also, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria - 100 years ago tomorrow - triggered the start of World War I a month later. How did the war shape Baltimore's large German community? Sheilah asks amateur historian John Foertschbeck.
Plus, Tom Hall talks with Jed Dietz of the Maryland Film Festival, and Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post, about what movies to see this weekend (if watching the World Cup isn’t taking up all your time).
