Is Being Hiv Positive Stops You From Getting Into Any Country You Want ???
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

What happens is that some people here in my country ...
According to them they have suffered like a racism act due to the fact of being positive ... someone actually said she had a scholarship to study in some country but unfortunately after the hiv test results come out they denied the visa ...has anybody else experienced this / is it true this can happen ?

@A myHIVteam Member you have never been asked because you are a United States Citizen. Up until President Obama changed the law, all foreign citizens were asked about HIV status.
