Have you ever known anyone personally with AIDS or HIV? (My ex step brother was diagnosed with HIV. He went thru numerous testing..and somehow (by Gods grace)a few weeks later, results showed no HIV.)

Yes. That they share their status with me shows they trust me, and I do my best to educate others around me. It's gotten better, but the stigma's still there.

I had an employer that I was very close to die of AIDS. It was very sad to watch him deteriate. One of the sweetest people I knew.

No. If someone I know does have it, they haven't told me.

I know two guys with it. They're a couple and the guy I actually know willingly contracted it from his bf just to get medical benefits.

Sadly, I do know two people with HIV and one with AIDS, all unrelated to each other.

I am so glad to hear that your ex step brother is free of HIV. I hope he stays well.

I don't personally know anyone, but I was listening to NPR a few months ago and they were discussing the HIV test. Apparently it is very common for the initial result to come up as positive when it really isn't. Talk about nerve wracking!
