Time To Refresh
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

Do you think it’s time for the CDC and The national institute of health to refresh there terminology on HIV. It’s 2024 not 1983 and major advances have been made. My opinion on the matter is as followed: first retire the word AIDS it is a dirty word and causes stigma. From now on advanced HIV should be used. Next undectable is everyone under 200 regardless of what lab you use. There is no evidence that I can find that says your healthier below 20 viral load then at 199.so we need to stop… read more

Looking back during this time, 🚫 NOT 🚫 what you think today, but looking back to the time, did you think Ryan was treated fairly? Was people justified to be scared back then?

How Many Remember, Seen, Or Made Panels For The AIDS Quilt In The 80's And 90's?
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

I remember so well when I first saw the quilt when portions of it were being displayed across the United States. I saw it in Portland, Oregon in the late 80's where a huge panel of quilts covered the floor of a huge auditorium. I have many friends who had quilts made for them, some I contributed to. I remember walking amongst the panels and looking at each with all the love woven into them for the person that died completely overwhelming. And the reading of hundreds of names of the people… read more

Should The Term "AIDS" Be Retired? I Think @A myHIVteam Member
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

Should the term "AIDS" be retired? I think @A myHIVteam Member might have mentioned this, but this is the first time I've seen it on Medscape.
Is AIDS just advanced HIV infection, or would eliminating the term give the impression that it's no longer a problem?
