I completely agree Dwayne! We tried to recruit people, but did this video on no budget, and short time frame. Next time we will be sure to include someone! Thanks for loving it and giving feedback.
I understand your concern. However, I would not call it a flaw. The individuals in this video did not say they do, or do not use condoms, as I am sure you agree that is between them and their choice. What we were trying to convey is that research has now confirmed that you are 96% less likely to transmit the virus if you are on medication AND undetectable. BUT you are right, it is not 100%, 3% is still a risk, and if they combined a condom, used correctly there is no risk.
Very good video with one major flaw: At 2:45 the man says it's ''highly unlikely'' that HIV can be passed on to your partner if the positive person is on HIV medication. This suggests no need for condoms, when in fact, HIV CAN be, and IS passed on to other people, EVEN IF the positive person is on HIV medication. The transmission risk is lowered, but not eradicated. There is a HUGE difference.
Very awesome!
I wish we shared this video widely!

I found a video I am going to post to my facebook page. I have been searching for a really good one and this it. This video made me cry.
Why would it be painful to hear someone now has a chronic illness?
Very well done!
Awesome campaign against the stigma about the disease and some cases the bullying
