From Fear to Hope: The HIV and AIDS Journey

From Fear to Hope: The HIV and AIDS Journey

In the early 1980s, a mysterious wave of illnesses emerged. Strange infections. Rare cancers. Mostly in young men. Doctors were baffled. Families were terrified. And a community began to lose its own. What started as confusion turned to crisis. Tens of thousands would die. Stigmatized. Forgotten. This is the story of how it began and how it changed everything.
