Criminalization of HIV transmission or exposure: global extent, impact and the way forward.

Abstract

In the following article, Edwin J. Bernard provides a summary of a satellite meeting co-organized by the Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network, the Global Network of People Living with HIV (GNP+) and NAM, held just prior to AIDS 2010, in which advocates working to end the criminalization of HIV non-disclosure, exposure and non-intentional transmission shared experiences of national and international advocacy responses to help inform future strategies.
