AIDS Dementia: A Good Reason to Stay HIV Negative!

- From his HIV diagnosis in 1985 until his death in April of 2009, Cass Mann was one of the world's longest-term HIV-positive survivors. He founded Positively Healthy, the UK's only HIV/AIDS charity staffed exclusively by openly gay men, which provided HIV services including education, support, and peer counselling. These videos now archive his wisdom and insight for future generations. Here he talks about the terrible effects of AIDS dementia. People who don't respond to HAART or ARV are at risk of AIDS dementia. You can't distinguish AIDS dementia from syphilitic dementia. If you've seen AIDS dementia, you'll never again have unsafe sex. We do a disservice to gay men by ads showing healthy, buff young men. People don't show images of lipodystrophy or AIDS dementia because they are afraid of offending people. But if fear is OK for ad campaigns about drunk driving, why not for HIV? If we were honest about the image of clinical AIDS, people's vanity might motivate them to avoid contracting HIV.

RIP Cass Mann
Very informative individual...I'm sure your clips have helped many .
One of the most difficult things for me was to watch my uncle die slowly with full AIDS. It was so sad for me. And I was there with him sitting next to his bedside at the hospital.Sadly,I watched him take his his last breath.This was in 1997.
OH NO he's advocating personal responsibility RUN RUN RUN
Very clear and concise. Great to hear such no nonsense clear thinking and talking on HIV in the Gay community.
Cass isn't stereotyping all gay men as being diseased. He's openly gay himself!
@Alexx2012sab: HIV negative test result means the test doesn't show evidence you have been infected with HIV. That's a good thing. Keep in mind, the HIV negative test result could be a "false negative." You might have been infected with HIV, but your body might not have made antibodies against HIV yet. Ask your doctor if you should be tested again later. Watch our vid "The Top Ten Questions About HIV Tests" for more.
