Hyderabad: HIV patient refused admission, delivers child on roadside

[Guest guest]

Dear Forum,

Re: /message/11554

When we feel that we were going strong on HIV/AIDS management, incident like

this is very much intorelable... where are those efforts spend on sensitizing

doctors and health care workers???

Are we spending those funds in the right manner to the extend that these doctors

/counselors and health Care Workers are still discriminating and marginalizing

HIV positive patients...

where are those claims that all doctors and health care workers were trained and

sensitize  about HIV/AIDS? or is it in papers only???

 

When we claim that the rate of HIV/AIDS infection is getting lower...yet are we?

 

Let uis take this incident as a eye opener that each and every doctor should be

comfortable enough to dealt with HIV/AIDS patients.Let us once again take this

step in understanding our own.. not ostracising them..
