"good morning america" asked me recently to pick someone who has had a great impact on our lives in this past year and i picked you. >> i didn't know that. thank you. follow asians. >> reporter: i want you to hear this.

what i said and this is on behalf of so many of us. every time there's a new covid- 19 headlight, i turned to one source and that is dr. gun day.'s started seeing her talk about covid in terms of anyone in san francisco could understand. by comparing the pandemic to the disease that has already devastated a generation of men. she compassionately and intelligently encouraged us and her medical colleagues to rethink covid era policy. her vast experience with hiv a.i.d.s. informed her to think in terms of harm reduction rather than fear and shame tactics the history shown doesn't work. i believe her expertise locally and nationally has saved and also improved lives during this year. she deserves our thanks. so, thank you. >> i am very touched. that is very touching and i'm very moved by that. there's nothing more important to me than being an hiv doctor.

literally nothing and i want to bring it into the covid work. >> reporter: i mean every word. robert, you have been in san francisco since the 70s. you have seen pre-hiv a.i.d.s., san francisco during the worst of it and now post. i am wondering what your thoughts are as we head into this next a.i.d.s. walk. what will you be thinking of? >> i have seen the devastation this brought on san francisco in the world. looking back, i first went to my first a.i.d.s. walk thinking i wanted to gather with people and the grief and share in the grave . i went to the park expecting a sad affair and instead it was happy. people were celebrating and dancing and singing.

these mrna vaccines are pretty amazing. there was an initial work even at the recent meeting that mrna vaccines could provide hope for being that vaccine. i think you will see a huge amounts of research learning from covid and applying it to hiv. >> that was a really beautiful conversation. thank you to reggie for that. a.i.d.s. walk starts and i was at 10:00 a.m. this year's virtual event will stream online and right here on abc7. we are at proud sponsor featuring billy porter, rita moreno, rosie perez, ben platt, george takai and many more. proceeds benefit service organizations across the bay area. there is still time to register and raise funds. you can call the number on your screen.
