NPOV
It should be pointed out that in the climate of the time, where not so much was known about the disease, that parents were right to be concerned. As it stands now, There is no balance to this article. Nowhere is it explain that the reason Eve was seen as a threat, was because she kept biting other children and other parents were afraid of infection by saliva transfer.

 * There is no source to the comment she "kept biting other children" nor the comment "parents were afraid of infection by saliva transfer". This is unsourced POV. The statement in the article "in February 1985, but she bit another child" is also unsourced. AldezD (talk) 16:47, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
 * It should be sourced but I certainly remember it being reported at the time. Adpete (talk) 06:06, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * OK I have added that source. But my recollection is that there was controversy even before that, i.e. protests/complaints before she began preschool, and then escalating after the biting incident. I will have to keep searching. Adpete (talk) 09:53, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * "Three months of intense media interest" -- SMH 12-Oct-1985; "three-year-old Eve van Grafhorst was prohibited from attending pre-school in July 1985" . So yes, there was controversy before the ban in October 1985. Adpete (talk) 12:15, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * "Three-Year-Old AIDS Girl Banned From School After Biting Friend... Eve had been back at the local daycare center for only two weeks after being banned for six weeks by the local council." AP, 15 Oct 1985. Adpete (talk) 11:41, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
 * "In February 1985 Eve began attending the Michael Burns Child Care Centre at Kincumber. Soon after, she was diagnosed as HIV positive. She was excluded from the centre in June, and her condition became public knowledge. In late September... she was permitted to return. Many parents remained unconvinced and boycotted the centre. In October she was expelled after biting another child." Australian Dictionary of Biography (ANU) Adpete (talk) 11:46, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
