A letter by Arthur Leahy for Gay Health Action [G.H.A.]. Addressed "c/o Quay Coop., 24 Sullivans Quay, Cork, Ireland". Mentions that the G.H.A. are dealing with "the initial media hysteria" surrounding AIDS. Refers to an "enclosed leaflet" that is not included. Also mentions the decision of the group to subscribe to "the main Gay magazines, in order to keep up to date with the situation in other countries and so lessen our sense of isolation and vulnerability."
