Basketball legend Earvin “Magic” Johnson, Jr. announced he had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, back in 1991 and he has lived what appears to be a normal, healthy life ever since.
Magic, who was spotted dining with his wife and kids at BOA steakhouse in Hollywood over the weekend (June 4, 2011), has long been an advocate for HIV and AIDS, striving to educate people about a disease that was once considered an automatic death sentence.
It has long been discussed that Magic was “cured” of the disease and many assumed that Magic’s access to ‘the best doctors money can buy’ saved his life and was the key factor preventing his HIV infection from progressing to AIDS.

Where day do that at???

The World Health Organization (WHO) recently revealed that radiation from cell phone use can possibly cause cancer.
They list “mobile phone use” in the same “carcinogenic hazard” category as lead, engine exhaust and chloroform, all capable of causing cancer cell production in the human body.
