Rudy Galindo Diagnosed With HIV
Rudy
Galindo, possibly the only professional out male athlete in the
United States, has been diagnosed with HIV. “If my story can help people, anybody at
all, it is positive," said Galindo, the 1996 U. S. National
Figure Skating Champion. "I’ve always tried to help people, whether it be as a gay man, or a
Mexican-American or now, as someone who is HIV positive." Galindo
will continue skating in the Tom Collins Champions On Ice Tour
as long as his strength will hold up.
