Breaking the stigma around HIV | Vitor Bastos | TEDxPortland

- In this impassioned, vulnerable talk, Vitor shares his own personal HIV journey. By leaning into the power of stories to be part of a global solution, he courageously engages the audience to join him by challenging stigmas and assumptions.
Enormous strides have been made in HIV treatment, care, and prevention since the epidemic began 40 years ago. HIV was once the leading cause of death for young people, but because of scientific advances, fewer people are becoming infected with HIV, and those who do are living longer and healthier lives.
Despite the advancements in HIV prevention and care, stigma and discrimination continue to stand in the way of completely stopping the spread of HIV. Vitor has devoted his life to ending stigma and stopping the spread, once and for all.
Vitor was part of a historic 7,000+ attendee Year 10 experience. After three reschedules due to the Pandemic, our Core Organizing Team persevered through 1,164 days of planning and execution to produce the event for Portland, OR.

All of our Partners and event history can be found at TEDxPortland.com An experimentalist by nature, Vitor defies the boundaries of design through his work. He has been featured on runways, in exhibitions, and in print in over ten countries. But when he received a health diagnosis he didn’t expect, he began to imagine a whole new way of living. He began to question which parts of himself he was hiding to fit in - particularly how his identity led to self-confidence or self-shaming. Today, Vitor leads by example with empathy-inspired strategies to design systems and campaigns that highlight the beauty - and complexity - found in humanity.

It was a blessing meting Dretiko on UA-cam who brought smile on my face and it's gonna be permanent, because I never thought I would ever be cured off HIV.
Which pill did you take
@@abdulhayee6971 I take a pill called genvoya. It’s an antiretroviral and it has different names around the world.
Wow amazing and beautiful speech.
My husband was diagnosed with HIV in 2007 and the Dr who diagnosed him did Not ask him to go on treatment just left it to him due to the stigma my husband did not take the treatment and he died in 2010 in fact 2 Drs he came across never asked him to go on treatment i thank God for having good nurse Friends who advised me to go on treatment and i can live a normal life and here i am undectable virus and 13yrs after my husband's death i am 78yrs now and i am never expected to live such a healthy life
Thank you so much for sharing. I’m sorry how things turned out. Doctors that don’t advise treatment might be prejudiced or just not up to date and none of these excuses are acceptable. I was lucky to find q second opinion soon enough. Take care!
The world is so crazy now, people are so sensitive towards their feelings but not with their health. This is really essential, people should be aware. Thanks for this talk
My thoughts exactly! Thanks!
Very well said. We need to aware the people.
