Regardless of the sector, although there is no medical or legal barrier for health professionals living with HIV to perform their work, health professionals living with HIV have been most affected by the opening of MEDULA.
Health workers living with HIV could not even apply to the infection services of the institution they work for because they were afraid that their diagnosis would become known without their consent and because they feared stigmatization and discrimination.
As a result of all these negative aspects, they had to go to another hospital or even to an institution in another city for their treatment and follow-up.
