What will you do if you have a friend or family member who is living with HIV?

EXPLANATION:

• ISOLATE. A person with HIV shouldn't be in a close contact especially in the public. Let him/her stay in his/her own room where it is nice and wide.

• SEPARATE HIS/HER BELONGINGS FROM OTHERS. HIV can be transmitted through use of objects so what must be done is to separate the personal belongings from others. Examples of personal belongings are towels, spoons and fork, toothbrush, etc.

• ENCOURAGE AND MOTIVATE. If ever that friend or family member has HIV and feels down on him/herself, I will motivate him/her by giving him inspirations, quotes and statements that can make him/her feel atleast a little better.

• TALK ABOUT HIV. If I want to communicate with that person, I need to know and be open minded about this vîrus. So, what to do is give what you know and don't be shy and awkward whenever talking about this virus. This is also for increasing your relationship status with that person and wider knowledge.

• GIVE COURAGE TO TAKE TREATMENT. Even though there's no cure found for HIV yet, it is better to motivate the person to take treatments and don't lose hope in life. Giving courage to live longer and make him/her feel positive about life can help.
