Kennydoc:Deciding to infect people or not is dependent on the patient - that we can't control. However, it doesn't give anyone the right to stigmatize the many other innocent patients that go for treatment because they really care about their lives - of which is the basis of our argument to start with. You should focus your energy more on the people that don't even know their statuses but unknowningly spread the disease and those not on treatments but knowingly spread the disease - they are the main reason for the increase in infections. I never said the HAART compromises the immune system. What I said was that the patient's immunity is usually compromised before or just after starting their treatments, and gets better as they continue taking their drugs. Your comments are evident enough that you are not a doctor. So, it's not my opinion, it's a fact. Do have a good evening as I won't comment on this again. 1 Like |

Mumu post from mumu professional ... Stigmatizing your patients is dumb and foolish If you don’t know that HIV is not transmitted via consensual sex alone... what then do you know as nurse |
Re: Rivers State Nurse Talks About Her HIV Patients, Nigerians Call For Her Sack by Kennydoc(m): 10:33pm On Jul 12, 2019 |
charliejose: Maybe you're a clinical student or a newly graduated doctor (that's if you have anything to do with medical training at all), and that's why you feel you've arrived. You make me laugh. What do you know about medicine? Do you really want us to discuss clinical medicine here? Nonsense! I pointed out something to you and you're talking rubbish. You said people on HAART have undetectable viral load, and I asked you if it happens immediately. Wasn't it obvious to you what I was driving at? That somebody has been started on HAART doesn't mean they are safe or that they will practice safe sex. By the way, there are factors that determine if people will achieve undetectable viral load, and drug adherence is one of them. The slapping senator was said to have infected his wife while receiving treatment, yet his wife didn't know he was positive. There are many men who get diagnosed and refuse to disclose their status to their spouses and concubines. It's a very common thing seen in PEPFAR clinics. I was never attempting to condone the nurse's post, cos I don't believe in posting things that happen at work on social media. Even though she intended to remind people that they should be very careful in their sexual activities, as many of the PLWH look healthy physically, she didn't need to talk about her patients. 1 Like |

GidiWoodsMan: How is it technically wrong? She did not expose anyone nor did she divulge any privacy information or the identity of anyone. In fact, what she said is public knowledge; we all know before the said it that, HIV is not written across one’s forehead and that, with recent advancement of medicine carriers lives normal healthy lives and can pro-create without passing on the virus. The only new info I think she exposes that, we don’t know before now is that, in her job as a nurse, she administers HIV drugs to patients and we would even infer that to some degree of accuracy without her saying it, because of her occupation of being a Nurse. One might have argument that, she tend to have a myopic view of HIV patients and have a condescending view about them or a self-patronizing pity. |

3 Reasons Sex With A Small joystick Is Fantastic In this era where we think we have all attained relative sexual enlightenment and everyone is civilized to an extent, there's some surprisingly basic stuff that we still find awkward — such as sex with small joysticks. 1. Small joysticks Can Be Great For Sexual Beginners You all know what am talking about. The "virgins"!!! This is a good place to start your sexual adventure. I was extremely sexually inexperienced when I met my boyfriend. I was a virgin, an, my point of size comparison was generally sculptured from the art museum.

charliejose:No sir. You are wrong. The fact that a HIV patient is on ARV medication, does not mean his viral load is undetectable. It takes a while before this happens. In some people it could take several months or even years before this happens, after they start their treatment. The patient will have to be highly disciplined in following a strict drug regimen, and would have to also show up for regular tests in the hospital, to monitor his CD4 count, etc. So even while taking drugs, the HIV patient can still infect his non-HIV partner, if he does not take adequate precautions. I have seen HIV patients coming late to the hospital, and they still develop complications like TB and other things, simply because they presented late, or were not compliant with their drug regimen, or those ARV drugs had side effects that caused unforeseen severe reactions in their body. The doctors then conduct more tests, before changing their drug combination. Kennydoc:I wonder, o! Can you imagine what he is saying.. .. 1 Like |

She did not expose anybody, she has only given a very useful advice to the people as a medical practitioner. |

martineverest: That lady did something very foolish and unprofessional. There are better ways of passing her message and sensitising people to be more careful of their reproductive health. She was stigmatising those unfortunate individuals going to that hospital to receive treatment. She mentioned the name of the hospital and everybody going to that hospital for treatment will be seen as potential carriers. She showed traits of arrogance and rudeness. If such a volatile character was working for you, would you still trust her in that position? Would you still trust her to keep dispensing antiretroviral pills to patients. Do you think patients will still have the confidence to approach her for drugs? She has indirectly scared away people who trust her and visit her for their medications. The implication of her outbursts is that more people will not have the confidence to visit such a place. If she can make the threat boldly like she is doing at the moment, what makes you think that she can’t expose the identities of the people involved? I see a nasty person that is very judgmental, full of herself, unreliable, an ldiot and very unprofessional. 1 Like |
