That picture was taken in the Midmay Clinic, one of the handful of HIV hospitals in Britain. That man died of AIDS a couple weeks later. The stigma around HIV/AIDS at the time was so bad that banks wouldn't loan money to employees of that clinic, bricks were periodically thrown through the windows, and many of the clinic's patients were completely estranged.

Trump suggested she had AIDS because he was ignorant and afraid.
