Show Notes

World AIDS Day is December 1st, and we thought we’d observe it by interviewing Mr. Keith Matthews and Mrs. Sandy Fagen of the Unity Wellness Center, a local AIDS Service Organization (ASO).  In this episode we cover a lot of ground.  We talk about treatment options for individuals living with HIV/AIDS.  We expose myths about the chronic condition.  We discuss how to support individuals living with the disease, and we even talk about steps for getting help if you think you might’ve been exposed to the virus.  The prognosis of people living with HIV/AIDS has changed a lot since the 1980’s, and we want to celebrate that!  We hope you enjoy this episode.
