Are Canadians really that nice? Debatable, but our ignorance is off the charts where HIV and AIDS are concerned; you’d think it was the 1980’s, not 2020.
Surveys done by Toronto's HIV Hospital and hospice, CaseyHouse show that 50% of Canadians would be nervous to come in contact with someone with HIV; 50% would not eat food an HIV-positive person touched or was near; many incorrectly believe HIV could be transmitted through skin-to-skin touch, saliva, or by sharing glasses or cutlery.
On this episode of The Shaun Proulx Show we #SmashStigma as Joanne Simons, CEO of Casey House, joins me, along with HIV-positive chef Greg Robinson to talk truth about HIV and AIDS ahead of their upcoming event, June’s HIV+ Eatery, where the meals are all prepared by chefs just like Greg.
We’ll also learn about the incredible stories awaiting in the new podcast by Casey House, Positively Speaking, with host, social worker Liz Creal.
Plus, a flashback to the time a not-so-nice Canadian made Joanne and I want to hit her with a car. One way to smash stigma.
