The State - News from Feb. 18, 1987

State Health Services Director Ken Kizer plans to back his conviction that AIDS is not casually transmitted by having dinner tonight at Bon Appetit, a French restaurant in the Sacramento suburb of Fair Oaks, where business fell off after a former chef, an acquired immune deficiency syndrome victim, died. The current chef, Jim Turknett, said he is planning to serve about 30 health department executives and reporters who will accompany Kizer. The chef said it would “confirm there’s no possible way to get AIDS by eating in a restaurant.”
