Human beings and their rights are constitutionally and legally protected. Though safeguards are there against human rights violations, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected people have to face several injustices in our society. People living with HIV are usually subjected to discrimination in the society even in the 21st century. Society’s attitude towards these people is that of stigma and discrimination. They are provided with the right to privacy according to the current human rights standards. However, the fact is that for the prevention of further spread of HIV, disclosure of HIV-positive status is imperative. Unless the society’s attitude towards HIV-infected persons changes, an HIV/AIDS-free world cannot be dreamt of.- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/00195561231166862 Human rights, HIV-infected persons 47990 Indian Journal of Public Administration HUMAN RIGHTS AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 399739 IIPA IIPA 2024-01-11 69(4), Dec, 2023: p.915-924 AR130510 2024-01-11 AR
