Io parlando col mio amico e collaboratore: ci sono pochissimi attivisti HIV sul fediverso. Almeno in Italia. Almeno federati con istanze italiane.
Lui: potremmo farci noi la base usando il nostro spazio.
Io: un attimo. Il fatto che vivi con HIV non ti mette nelle condizioni di essere attivista in automatico, né tanto meno di prenderti sulle spalle un'istanza del Fediverso. Va benissimo proporsi, ma da soli non ne siamo in grado e PlusBrothers, che sia .online o .net fa lo stesso, è e deve restare un progetto legato a HIV sì, ma un intrattenimento e hobby nostro.
Quello che possiamo fare e che faremo, è sicuramente una conversazione con LILA e Anlaids, le maggiori associazioni italiane sul tema, per cercare di creare qualcosa di collaborativo assieme. Da soli, non abbiamo la forza. Non io. Non tu. #fediverso #hiv

"...if it’s OK to comply with a directive to remove information about gender, what if the next demand is that we don’t report about people who emigrated from other countries, or on people who are experiencing homelessness? What if there’s a directive to suppress data about a particular racial or ethnic group that’s unpopular? How far would we go?"

Today is #WorldAIDSDay. As always: if you have questions about #HIV or #STD, I try to answer them as best I can. Important: there are no stupid questions on these topics.
Today is World AIDS Day. Andrea Teagle writes for @KnowableMag about the two trials that suggest "functional cures" may be within reach.
World AIDS Day
The theme for the 2025 observance is "Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response," focusing on resilience in the face of challenges and the importance of sustained political leadership and community efforts to end AIDS by 2030. The day's purpose is to raise awareness, end stigma, remember those lost to HIV/AIDS, and support those currently living with the virus.

Fediverse users who rely on Apple products and services for any need (blindness included): from 1st to 7th December 2025 the cooperation between Apple and ProductRed, donates 5 dollars automatically for any transaction coming from ApplePay.
Let me add something though: American government has cut global fund; Apple is a big tech company who still keeps promoting accessibility and diversity/inclusion programs despite general government policies.
It however licks Trump's boots (just to say it elegantly) but I think every dollar is fundamental. Is it going to last? Does 100% donations go actually there? I don't know. I just do whatever I can for HIV and AIDS awareness.
📢 Am #WeltAIDSTag unser Update zum Zweiten Berliner Patienten, dem zweiten #HIV-Heilungsfall an der #CharitéBerlin: Letztes Jahr vorgestellt, war der Heilungsmechanismus bisher unklar.
💡 Neue Erkenntnisse im Fachmagazin Nature zeigen: Der Patient hat besondere Antikörper gebildet, die nach Stammzelltransplantation wohl zur vollständigen Bekämpfung des Virus beigetragen haben. Details heute im Tagesspiegel (€):
Heute ist #WeltaidsTag. Wie immer: wenn ihr Fragen zu #HIV oder #STD habt, ich versuche sie bestmöglich zu beantworten. Wichtig: es gibt keine dummen Fragen zu diesen Themen.
"There have been other benefits for Portugal from de-criminalisation. Thanks largely to officially supported needle swaps, confirmed HIV cases fell from 1,287 in 2001 to just 16 in 2019."

One of the strangest, most dangerous things that #RFKJr seems to believe is the claim that #HIV doesn't cause #AIDS, and that maybe germs don't really matter. My colleagues at Defend Public Health walk you though the deadly implications.
