    Which medical facility made the disclosure and failed to take the lady through counseling ? What sort of medical facilities do we have in Ghana in this day and age?
    May her soul rest in peace.

    If this woman even got counselled then the counseling wasnt good enough. Too bad.

    May her beautiful soul res ...

    Following the oil boom, I hear they all troop to Takoradi to sell their bodies to all types of foreigners. I wonder how many other people may have been infected before the sun sets. May she rest in peace.

  • Anthony 7 years ago

    Testing and counseling about HIV must be done to prevent panic and such irrational decisions to commit suicide. HIV/AIDS is not a death certificate.

    You guys are worried about HIV. The worst sickness is diabetes, and we never talk about, eating ourselves to death.
