HELLO, INTERNET.\u00a0 My name is Markgraf.\u00a0 In recognition of World AIDS Day this year, I’ve been rampaging all over Cambridge city centre with FACTS, my talented friend Kirsten<\/a> (who took the completely amazing photographs) and a whole load of mis-behaving paper!<\/p>\n
COLD HARD FACTS ON IRRITATINGLY FLIMSY PAPER<\/p>\n
ARE YOU READY FOR THE FACTS?\u00a0 Of course you are.\u00a0 Everyone should be
ready for facts about HIV transmission and statistics, because it’s
ignorance that fuels prejudice, and prejudice that shits on people’s
lives. Fun fact: there’s
effective treatments for both HIV and hideous misinformation and
ignorance!<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n …So hug away! :D<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n Can we stop assuming things
about people’s lifestyles, now?\u00a0 Please?<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n HIV can be spread regardless of
anyone’s background or immigration status.\u00a0 And you can’t
seek out treatment for free for a virus you don’t know you have.\u00a0
Get yourself screened regularly.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n I mean, the fish don’t
even get anywhere near your bloodstream. And if they do, YOU HAVE BIGGER
PROBLEMS THAN HIV TRANSMISSION TO WORRY ABOUT AS YOU ARE PRESUMABLY RECEIVING
A
SHARK PEDICURE<\/em>.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n AND THAT’S A WRAP, FOLKS.\u00a0 Pop over
to HIVAware<\/strong><\/a> for more.<\/p>\n
Spread facts, not fear.\u00a0 Wear a ribbon.\u00a0 Get
screened.<\/p>\n
