HIV and AIDS in the Movie Vicky

I have mixed feelings about the way the movie handles HIV and AIDS. I just felt that okay for this to be an issue that a hetero cis woman is dealing with when HIV and AIDS is something that largely affected the queer community it just feels like a weird erasure of that. For a straight character to have a storyline where she's concerned about this it just felt kind of maybe indicative of that erasure but I was like well what's the alternative to have the one queer character in the movie be concerned about that? And my understanding is that Helen Childress is not a queer writer and so it's like would it have been her place  it could really easily skew into tragedy porn
