      Which is worse: getting CANCER OR HIV?

    • #99916

      Cancer appears to be worse, because at present people can leave healthy lives as long as they take their HIV medication. But cancer is a painful illness that science is still trying to find answers to. But there is hope. There has been breakthroughs in early diagnosis of certain forms of cancer such as cervical cancer.

      Chemotherapy with new technology is also now more or less painless.

      Cancer is very painful illness, I know one of my sister friend who died with Breast cancer, and one of relative who have HIV for more than 10years.

      Cancer is a terrible illness. It appears to be worse than HIV. As yamcy said “people can leave with HIV as long as they take their medication” .

      Cencer is a worse illness than HIV. It kills faster than imagination. While people with HIV life longer if they are taking their medicine. The only problem they are facing in the community is stigmatization.

    • #103294

      I know many people that live over 10yrs with HIV

      The stigmatization is largely the result of unfounded fear. Government, schools and NGOs need to better inform the general populace on what is true, what’s not true, and what’s no longer true about HIV.
