-[ Chuckles ] Yes, we have a very long history.

-Ah.

I commend you both for being able to maintain

such a strong bond for so many years.

I mean, my exes would have never believed or trusted

Let's take it back a moment.

HIV.

An incredibly deadly viral disease

careened through not only the US,

but the world in the early '80s,

the death toll reaching devastating numbers

in a very short period of time.

How does this viral disease compare to ARSA,

which in fact, is not an STD or quite as deadly?

The drug cost.

When the first HIV drugs were developed,

money-hungry executives gouged the price

from $17.50 per pill to $750.

Circling back to ARSA, Vincon --

the only treatment headed to the market --

is priced at $129 per pill.

Doctors are recommending a 30-day supply

at two pills per day.

That's $7,740 to live.

For those with insurance, most only cover half.

That's $3,870.

The mere cost bankrupting most families

and making those considered low-income,

which is most of America,

literally having to choose between life and death.

-Enough of that.

-Mm. Yeah, that's terrible.

Do you love me, baby?

-Yeah?

-Why are you responding like that?

-Whenever someone asks me that question,

especially right after sex, it's usually a trap.

-How many women have asked you that question?

-You know what? Let's just change the subject.

Yes. I do love you, Davina.

-Are you sure?

-Yes, I'm sure.

-I feel like you're hiding things from me.

-Davina, I gave you access to my place

after just knowing you for two weeks.

-There's other things, Sharif.

There are so many other things.

I have no idea what you do all day.

You introduce me to some people that you say

that you're closest to in the whole world,

but they left and walked out of your dinner party.

I have no idea how you have all this money.

I even tried to Google you, and nothing.

I-I-It's like you're this cypher who doesn't exist.

For all I know, you could be a drug dealer on the run!

-I see you've been busy.

-Seriously?

-No. Hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey. Don't --

Baby, don't go, okay?

I love waking up next to you when you're in my bed.

I need you.

-I don't want to sleep with a stranger.

I deserve better than that.

-Okay, fine.

I'll tell you whatever it is you want to know.

-Okay.

I want to know exactly what you do.

Exactly.

-I buy and sell QuCoin.

And he just kind of paused for a minute.

I think he was trying to decide on whether or not

I would be able to comprehend.

He looked me dead in the eyes and he said to me...

"Black people simply don't get the same quality of care

that our white counterparts do, and this second-rate,

third-rate care is shortening our lives, literally killing us.

It doesn't matter the insurance status, income, age, condition.

All these could be comparable to whites,

and we still would receive inferior care,

all because of our skin color.
