HIV Test : Know Your Status

I just want all of you to see this.


Today marks the 3rd anniversary I lost Ada, my childhood friend to Aids.
She didn't get it through sexual intercourse, she didn't contact it through blood transfusion, she didn't contact it through contaminated needle but probably through the blade she might have shared with her sibling cry

Ada was the first child of her parents, she had 3 siblings. Her dad was a driver in Agip company, so they were well to do because he was paid well.
But he lived a promiscuous life, I remember the numerous women he brought to the house in the absence of his wife whenever Ada and her siblings travel for vacation.

I can still remember vividly the numerous fight he had with Ada's mom over infidelity.

The whole problem started when Ada's dad fell ill, he was taken to the hospital but his ailment would stop temporarily only to come back again. He had an unending cough, chicken pox and other sickness.

He was taken to the church later on because everyone thought it's spiritual. They brought him back to the house when it didn't improve either.
Different pastors and prayer warriors came to the house to pray for him too.

A huge handsome man that use to be the centre of attraction to women, became a shadow of himself. He became so bony and scary. His eyes popped out of his head and his cheeks sunk. He looked like a zombie and walked slowly.
I remember his wrapper falling off his waist whenever he walked for a short mile and he will b so weak to pick it up.

Rumours started going round that he was suffering from Aids. While some persons believed it was a spiritual problem.
He later died after some months and his wife became sick alongside her last child, Victor.

That was when it dawned on everyone that is Aids. She was placed on Anti retroviral drugs alongside her last child.

People in the neighbourhood avoided her, and her house help also ran away.

Before my mum would go to the market to sell her wares, she would call I and my siblings indoor and begged us not to play with Ada or go to their house to see movies like we use to.
She told us to run away whenever we see her.


I remember how she flogged me with firewood for allowing Ada come to the house to play.

Ada's mom later died alongside her siblings and she went to live with her Uncle only to be returned after 7 months when she started having symptoms of Aids too.

Nobody took care of her and she died later on. She was just 13yrs old when she died.


HIV/AIDS is real, know your status.

For the teens out there, abstain from sex or use condom.

For the married men out there, remain faithful or use condom

Your life doesn't worth the fun.

Yet some people don't believe that this dreadful disease exists. Or why should a young man be jumping from bed to bed? It is a sign that such a fellow doesn't believe in the existence of the disease.

HIV no dey show for face. That fine instragram/nairaland babe/bobo you're eyeing might just turnout to be a carrier. On the contrary, HIV/AIDS isn't a death sentence. Get tested today!

[size=28pt]Shame; HIV is a scam.[/size]
[size=18pt]
Never ever take the HIV test
.[/size]
HIV does not exist and does not cause AIDS - fraudulent toxic HIV meds causes AIDS
The fake fraudulent test may lead to your death sentence when the start giving you poisonous HIV meds.

AIDS is curable - simply stop HIV meds and eat nutritional diet .

The white man created the hiv hoax cause African depopulation / genocide.

These white people who have been massacring us for centuries suddenly becomes overly concerned about us being infected by the hiv virus which he claims he discovered. Let us wake up - your enemy can never care about your health. Make no mistake about it white man has never stopped being our enemy.

Has he ever even apologised to us for the numerous genocides and atrocities from slavery and colonialism to present day economic sabotage.

To the extent that even though there is no drive for people to get tested in his own land, he is pushing and funding free treatment through the World Health Organisation in Africa.

Remember the last time the white man gave the native Americans free blankets? The blankets were infested with smallpox that wiped the native Americans out.

hiv is hoax, there is never been any singular blood test that test for hiv, the diagnosis is made simply by checking for range of conditions.

The diagnosis is only made after an interview.

Why would a scientific medical diagnosis required an interview about lifestyle to be made?

hiv diagnosis in Africa requires about 3 conditions, which may easily be a result of malnutrition. Most times the diagnosis in Africa is made with out any blood test.

Unlike in the white man's land they do blood test for about 8 antibodies plus interview , which allows only undesirables like drug addicts and homosexual males to be diagnosed.

In Africa, they diagnose anybody if they are unlucky enough to show symptoms of 3 conditions at any time.

If you have malaria and lost weight, or even just pregnancy you could be diagnosed hiv positive in Africa The western controlled WHO gives financial incentives for African doctors to diagnose and "treat HIV" with toxic meds which sell to us cheaply or even donate for free.

Standing5:
This is how northerner are brainwashed about western education oh. So the man in OP narrative died of malnutrition and not AIDS?

The cure is on the way my friend, God is working on it.

HIV virus can only survive in a living cell. That means it will die when not in a living cell. The way out I think, is to deceive the virus in the body and make the body appear to it like a non-living cell. If there is anyway this can be done without causing harm to the body, I think the cure is discovered.

Sad story. See how the disease wiped off a whole family after transmission from only one member.
I watched an Ebola documentary not too long ago, it scared the pants off me how it destroyed families. In every case it wipes off almost everyone save one or two family members to tell the tale. With AIDS it seems worse as it wipes off everyone unlucky enough to contract it. Good thing white people are hard at work coming up with a vaccine or cure.

Where is the evidence she died thru razor blade contact?
If this your tale even happened,cause,it looks like a ready made one,u might be surprised that she got it thru sexual contact.
It's not as easy to contract HIV thru sharing razor blades,clippers and even needles as many people are made to bliv.Though it does happen,it must be immediately after use by a carrier and the load must be high because the virus doesn't survive well outside.

Thanks for the Post , I wonder why government's don't give the cure to the people , I personal believe the cure for this disease is there somewhere hidden in huge UN boxes they don't wanna give it to the society , if the world can unity and approach UN offices they can issue it to the society but that my own personal belief
