Explain actually HIV stigma in our society…
What society think about a HIV patient??
HIV stigma in society comes from fear and misinformation. Many people wrongly associate HIV with immoral behavior, thinking it’s contagious through casual contact. As a result, HIV patients often face discrimination, social isolation, and shame—when in reality, with proper treatment, they can live normal, healthy lives.

HIV stigma stems from misconceptions, fear, and moral judgment, often linking the disease to “immoral” behavior. Society wrongly views HIV-positive individuals as “unsafe” or “unclean,” leading to discrimination, isolation, and silence—even though HIV is manageable and not casually transmitted. Breaking this stigma starts with education, empathy, and open conversations.
