Discrimination at the highest level is what we have in our arm forces. how does being hiv positive stops you from being a good force man but having pot belly does not. Nigeria is dead and just waiting to get decayed soon.

Because when you get shot in battle and you are bleeding, you constitute a major risk to your unit's first responders and fellow soldiers who will attend to your injuries.

How old are you? Probably 14.

If by chance you're beyond that age, know that you're already a wasted shit. Your mentality can take you NOWHERE.

Now, I'm waiting for you to bark.

Please is there restriction for HIV positive person joining the military or para military in Nigeria?

Cause I very sure those with HIV will want to know

Please your contribution is needed.

Thanks


No. They are not allowed to.
Military training is "Bloody"
Exposes others to risk of contracting infections .

However, lots of military personnels are HIV positive.

This is coming from a medical doctor who worked as a civilian staff in a military training base, Airforce precisely

High blood pressure is not ordinary in any case...
You cannot undergo military training with high blood pressure.

Hiv positive people should never be allowed in the military.

Hiv is a disease condition and the military should be for people that are very fit.


That's the bitter truth.

You're a very foolish person.
The army is for the fit, HIV itself weakens the immune system, How can an HIV patient survive in the harsh environments that soldiers go through?

HIV is no longer a death sentence as before. Advanced medical research has been able to produce medications that are able to suppress the virus in the body if taken religiously within 3 to 6 months. It supresses it to become undetectable in your blood and therefore untransmissible too. The good thing is that these medications are readily available in almost all hiv centers in Nigeria. Being undectatable doesn’t mean the virus is no longer in the body but as long as one continues with the ART it remains like that for life. But if one stops thinking it’s no more there the viral load rebounds and may become resistant to the drugs. So go to any hiv clinic and be on the newest ART and in less than 6 months and you will live your normal life and go for any medical interview for any job without fear. Hiv is now regarded as a chronic illness like diabetes and hypertension which can be well managed for life. And there’s a big hope of getting the cure soonest. You can also goggle to check all I have written here.

HIV tests should be discontinued. It means nothing and saves no life. The test only read some dead chromosome in your body and nothing HIV. Do more researches and get the truth.

My brother, there will be a medical test to ascertain your state of health. Somepeople with ordinary surgical marks, suspicious bmi or even shifted eyesight will find it difficult get clearance.
So don't just bring the politics of discrimination into it, their requirements are clearly written in their forms.
