I lost a friend not to HIV but to HIV related complications. she died of tuberculosis, pneumonia(PCP,LIP), simply put she died of AIDS last week. HIV/AIDS is real, avoid anybody wt it without stigmatizing d person.

People perish for lack of knowledge. Do you know the health status of the people that prepare the food you eat in restaurants, joints etc OR just because they have not been tested you think you are safe.
If HIV can be contacted through food then everyone in the world has it.

Lol. Here to read comments from ignorant nairaladers who sadly, are in the majority.

Honestly I'm ashamed of the amount of ignorant people in this country that you'll have to think and ask yourself what kind of education is thought in this country that our levels of thinking and reasoning is very low.

I think Nigeria has a very high level of people with ignorance, especially here in Nairaland.

UNBELIEVABLE: First Restaurant That Has Only HIV-positive Chefs In The Kitchen Opened
Toronto is home to a new, first-of-its-kind pop-up — the world’s only restaurant where every piece of food is made by someone with HIV. Organizers say the impetus was a recent poll that found that the thought of dining with somebody who’s HIV-positive still paralyzes them with fear. The survey by Casey House, Canada’s only hospital dedicated to people living with HIV/AIDS, found that nearly half of Canadians wouldn’t eat a meal prepared by someone with the disease, even though health experts say the infection can’t be transmitted that way. To combat the stigma around food prep, Casey House decided it was time to pull a bold stunt.

watch the video below

The pop-up, called June’s Eatery after Casey House’s co-founder June Callwood, launched this week. It advertised two four-course dinners made by 14 HIV-positive chefs for $125 — one yesterday, the other today. Both of them sold out.

Organizers told The Guardian that they even welcome “negative coverage,” though, as the “entire point of the pop-up” is “exposing the ignorance and blame around HIV and AIDS.” They did their best to test people, too — organizers say they mailed jars of soup prepared by the HIV-positive team to newsrooms “across Canada.” It seems they didn’t really care what became of that soup in a box, as long as it challenged media to “examine their own beliefs” before writing about the event.

We are going closer to wen they will tell us the truth.

HIV as the cause of AIDS is a scam.

HIV doesn't kill.

The so called prevention drugs they give to HIV patients is what destroys their immunity.

America has stopped mandatory HIV tests for people coming into America.

The cut is the issue....as when it gets into the food, they contribute to spreading the virus

Worse is the idea that they might not even know when they might be injured in the kitchen
