Abstract:

HIV/AIDS is a major public health problem in Africa. Stigmatization, discrimination and lack of appropriate health care are among the commonest challenges that HIV infected persons and their families face. It has been suggested that among the tools available in the fight against stigmatization and discrimination is public disclosure of a person’s HIV seropositive status. While public disclosure of HIV status has a place in the fight against HIV and AIDS, especially by resulting in behavioural change among people who know of an HIV infected person, we argue that such disclosure also has potenti

Abstract:

Infectious disease control is a crucial public health issue. Although it is important to urgently perform public health measures in order to reduce the risk of spread, it could end up stigmatizing entire groups of people rather than offering control measures based on sound scientific principles. This “us” versus “them” dynamic is common in stigmatization, in general, and indicates a way in which disease stigma can be viewed as a proxy for other types of fears, especially xenophobia and general fear of outsiders. The pandemic risk associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection led us to consider, among o

Abstract:

The main problems that are always faced by people with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) are physical problems with declining health status, psychological problems in the form of stress, depression and paranoia. Social problems in the form of stigma and discrimination that cause PLWHA to lose social support from family and friends, isolated and hidden, and powerless. The emergence of volunteers from peer support groups (PSG) helps PLWHA a lot by providing social support in the form of love, educational information, care, instrumental support to spiritual support, in full without asking for anything in return.

Abstract:

There has been no significant consideration of the civil liability of doctors under Tanzanian law, either in the decisions of the courts of that country or in legal scholarship. The most obvious explanation for this has been the infrequency with which issues of medical malpractice have been litigated. Society and politics in Tanzania have changed greatly over the past ten years, however, and there is some reason to expect that the volume of litigation will increase.

<p>公投期間愛滋一直被反同婚方用來作為反對同性婚姻的理由，本文期待了解愛滋負面文宣對男同志愛滋感染者產生的心理影響。本文先多方收集反同婚理由述及愛滋的文宣，並透過愛滋民間團體工作人員招募受訪者，於2019年4月進行一次性焦點訪談團體，團體前先進行所收集的負面文宣簡報，再進行2.5小時訪談，之後形成逐字稿進行質性分析。8位男受訪者平均年齡38.75歲，平均感染愛滋11年，均服用抗愛滋病毒藥物中，都接收過愛滋的負面文宣。研究結果如下:第一、受訪者會取笑文宣內容，或是感到煩悶、生氣，因應方式會避開、客觀冷靜或是主動教育身邊的人。第二、在愛滋負面文宣下，受訪者面臨三個兩難的三角關係:(1)受訪者不會想和反同婚方對話，轉而期待官方及其他有力人士澄清; (2)受訪者想提出反證會擔心殃及其他無辜族群;(3)受訪者擔心影響社會大眾對男同性戀者社群的觀感或被社群切割。第三、受訪者建議愛滋反歧視的宣導，應強調愛滋治療效果、修改官方公布的愛滋統計分類、與其他團體形成友善聯盟等面向。第四、家人開始討論同性戀議題，讓受訪者有被接納的感覺，但還是不容易現身愛滋感染者身分。綜上，男同志愛滋感染者對於婚姻平權公投時的歧視愛滋文宣，陷於內化汙名與外在歧視的處境下，帶來兩難的影響。</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><p>Con

Abstract:

The disease known as syphilis has a unique and unsettling place in the vast history of human sickness. It is a disease that is defined by triumph, complacency, and rebirth. With the introduction of penicillin, this ailment, which was thought to have been eradicated off the face of the earth, is now seeing a revival all over the world1. Not only does the suppressed revival represent a medical failing, but it also serves as a significant reflection on the disrespect that society has for some aspects of treatment, including flaws in public health education, inadequate financing for sexual health

In Brazil, access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) during pregnancy has increased, leading to a reduction in new infections among children. Currently, lifelong ART is available to all pregnant, however yet challenges remain in eliminating mother-to-child transmission. In this paper, we focus on the role of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to analyse blood plasma samples of pregnant women with HIV infection to differentiate pregnant women without HIV infection.
