Phil Johnson, M.D. discusses the problem of HIV stigma. People who contract HIV or develop clinical AIDS are sometimes stigmatized, ostracized, or discriminated against. They have lost jobs, been abandoned by friends and family, and even murdered. There is no reason for this. People with HIV or AIDS pose no threat to those around them and should get sympathy, support, and medical treatment.

  • Only reason you're posting this video is because you're a kaffir lover.

  • Your comment highlights the unfortunate persistence of racial prejudice. People with a good heart believe that all humans should have equal rights. Knowledgeable people are aware that skin color is no reason to consider another person inferior. Compassionate and enlightened people know that hatred is bad both for the hater and the hated. I'm posting this video because I want ALL people to be protected from the scourge of HIV/AIDS -- even you!
