As an executive director of a community health agency that focuses on HIV care; testing and case management. These types of statements are not only ignorant but dangerous. Ppl who actively take medication for HIV can live as long as anyone else. Furthermore, if the are medication compliant they cannot transmit the virus. HIV does not care about your name, favorite color, address or what church u go to, it can affect anyone. (Ppl who are positive are no have not done anything differently from the rest of us...they had unprotected sex at least once).

These types of rants promote stigma and really discourages resting due to fear of this type of ostrazation. These types of rants are partly responsible for the high.hiv rates in the Black.community.
