Comments on: I Was Shocked When I Was Told I Have HIV http://www.talkafrique.com/issues/hiv-stigmatization-stereotype Connecting To Advance Tue, 01 Feb 2011 02:04:40 +0000 hourly 1 By: Francis http://www.talkafrique.com/issues/hiv-stigmatization-stereotype#comment-506 Mon, 31 Jan 2011 18:37:51 +0000 http://www.talkafrique.com/?p=6408#comment-506 it’s got to start with churches and religious organizations. as long as Pastors continue to preach that HIV is caused by sinners and affects sinners, the stigma will continue. Thanks for the article

It’s time we changed our mentality. I think misinformation played a major role. When HIV emerged, we were just told it caused by prostitution and homosexuality and that has stuck in the heads of most of us, me included

I thnik we need lot of education to let people know that HIV is a disease like cancer, gornorhea, and jaundice. Isolating the patients as sinners is a seed of ignorance that is very deep rooted in us, even the educated among us
