ERRORS IN AIDS AWARENESS

There have been errors posted in the media by the National AIDS Council of Papua New Guinea and half-witted activists from care group I Gat Hop.

The first is that FAMILY is guilty of stigma and discrimination. That may be so for some families but loving HIV victims are usually cared for by loving families. 

Families may reject violent, boozing trouble making members who may be employed but spend all their pay on booze with none for the family expenses.

A person on ART medication has gone back to normal. Not true. That is HIV activist propaganda crap. 

Let that person try to default on ART medication and have the virus burst out of the hiding places. 

There may be a need for a second line of ART. Then that is the end. Positive Living and ART will make the person as normal as possible. 

Peter Momo is the national role model. He was on the second line of ART, chain smoked, boozed and died of a fatal decline in his immune system regardless of second line ART medication.

Let the person smoke cigarettes and booze to weaken their immune system to death regardless of the ART.

A person on ART can have sex without a condom. Not true. If there has been default on ART, there may be a viral count in the blood to infect a partner. 

Sex without a condom is only possible after a negative viral load test at the clinic. Even then it is only one off. 

The next month, any default will infect the partner. Another viral load test is necessary. A negative viral load test is not valid forever.

Ï'm OK. I had a negative viral load test two months ago". He subsequently infected his partner as he defaulted on ART for a fortnight the month before.
