‘Once You See a Married Woman with HIV…’: Doctor’s Remark Sparks Online Debate
A Nigerian doctor claimed that when a married woman tests positive for HIV, she most likely contracted the virus from her husband. He described it as a “two-edged sword” of betrayal and a lifelong condition. Some forum users agree, pointing to cases where unfaithful husbands exposed their wives. Others argue HIV transmission is multifaceted and cannot be blamed on one partner. Health experts remind Nigerians that HIV can be passed through unprotected sex, contaminated blood, shared needles, and from mother to child. They stress regular testing, mutual fidelity, early treatment, and open communication between partners.
