In the final analysis, if you remove this ugly, thick clothing of stigmatization, marginalisation off HIV victims, in the light of marvellous medical breakthrough in treatment, management, prevention and possible universal cure, I can openly say, comparably, HIV infection is far better than diseases like chronic hypertension, chronic kidney disease, chronic liver diseases, stroke etc. Data point to the fact that, those are the diseases killing people most in this country.
