Background
The Guerilla Clinic was an informal, "underground" group of
AIDS activists who obtained unapproved, experimental drugs (mostly from Mexico) and distributed them at cost to PWAs who wanted
them. This carton of records was produced and/or compiled by Blaine Elswood, who donated them to UCSF's Special Collections
in 1990. Elswood was a founder and major activist of the Guerilla Clinic.
