Stigma hampering fight against HIV/AIDS - report

MUSANZE-Stigma and discrimination against People Living with HIV/Aids (PLWAs), mainly among the youth, remains a stumbling block to the fight against the scourge. According to a new survey, stigma and discrimination have limited access to counselling, tests, care and support services, as people continue to conceal their status.  The survey was presented during a workshop that brought together community health workers, local authorities and anti-AIDS clubs in Musanze District.
