  • Enlightening & a Worthy Listen

    This episode is well worth the listen to help those of us blessed with great health - to understand and actually help with this worthy cause! Many of us with no links to the Aids Epidemic - have seen this seious disease fade into the shadows. I had no idea that in spite of amazing inroads in the treatment of the disease - complacency seems to have set in. Consequences are reduced research funding, higher infection rates, and unawareness of prevention. The danger is not over... A real eye-opener ... more

  • Inspiring and intriguing

    Intriguing information about HIV and living with the stigma of it. I love that she is working on the mental health of people infected with HIV as I can imagine it can cause much confusion and depression because of the stigma attached to it! Thank you for your work on this. More funding is needed, we must help end the stigma and the disease!

  • Peter Piot

    Wow! What a fantastic start to this planned series of podcasts on the subject of HIV and stigma. A finer guest you could not have found for the first show. Peter’s interview was enormously insightful and helpful. He was engaging and captivating and I loved the interview style of Jonathan - who as a man living with HIV asked pertinent and well constructed questions. More please ! ❤️
