When Magic Johnson announced his HIV diagnosis in 1991, it sent shockwaves far beyond the basketball court. At the time, HIV was perceived as an immediate death sentence. However, nearly three decades later, Magic stands as a beacon of hope and resilience, redefining what it means to live with such a diagnosis.

In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Magic reflected on his journey since the life-changing announcement. He shared that he has been in good health, gaining validation and strength with each visit to the doctor as his T-cell count continues to rise.

Magic credits his resilience not only to his medical care but also to the support of his wife, Cookie Johnson, advancements in modern medicine, and his dedication to staying physically fit. He revealed his rigorous routine: “I’m up at 4 a.m. every day, stretching, then working out for two hours. I spend the rest of the day in the office. It’s been a blessing to maintain this pace. I’ve done my part, the medicine has done its part, and my wife makes sure I keep up my end.”

Beyond his personal health, Magic has also been a vocal advocate for HIV/AIDS prevention. By sharing his story, he has played a pivotal role in dispelling myths and misconceptions about the virus. His openness has encouraged more people to prioritize testing, seek treatment, and find support.

Magic’s impact extends beyond his advocacy; he has also become a successful businessman and philanthropist. His journey through adversity showcases his strength and serves as a powerful example of how resilience can lead to triumph.
