In September/October 1998, Mothering magazine published an article “AZT Roulette” by Celia Farber, on universal HIV testing of pregnant women and concerns over AZT toxicities in newborns. Lang alerted the Council of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to the existence of this article, endorsing the view of “journalistic responsibility” related by its publisher Peggy O'Mara. Several months later, he also alerted the Council to the case of Felix Tyson in Eugene, Oregon, whose parents were alerted to concerns over AZT toxicities by the aforementioned Mothering article.
