@ocalimusic: I know it takes a lot to come out and share this type of thing with the world @Tré Melvin we love you thank you for sharing ❤️🫂 If you watched he mentioned how people say you look clean as if someone living with HIV looks dirty please stop the mindset. #HIV #AIDS #hivpositive #tremelvin
I watched pose, it very much educated me more on hiv etc

My mom died of AIDS because a man didn’t disclose his status to her. Looking clean has absolutely nothing to do with having HIV or AIDS. I’m a huge supporter and advocate for people who have HIV and AIDS.

It’s because of movies depict people with AIDS as sickly and with sores keeping the stigma around. And you’re right it’s a backhand compliment like you’re pretty to be fat.

It also doesn’t have a gender, race or a sexuality , it is very much universal . I know people living and thriving , taking their meds and living life. God bless him for being open and sharing his story with the public!

I know someone who was born with AIDS! not a lot of people know that you can be born with it. Cleanliness has nothing to do with it

I think due to lack of awareness, people think it looks how it did in the 80s when healthcare wasn’t as advanced and advocacy was still upcoming

Yes it is backhanded. I have a similar story though I wasn’t infected because my ex was undetectable but he did not disclose he was 24 and heterosexual and “clean” HIV does not discriminate and removing the stigma helps stop the spread.

The stigma is so crazy hsv, hiv and other non curable infections do not HAVE A LOOK you can be a very clean person and get exposed to something due to someone else’s negligence

And people who are positive aren’t “dirty.” We really need to retire that verbiage. Positive and negative work just fine

I think ppl hear HIV and automatically correlate it to how it looks in the 80’s, it’s ignorant bc it’s not the death sentence it used to be. Much love and blessings to you!!
