OUR CORONAVIRUS SHOW IS ONGOING. DAY 14
These are difficult times for all of us and there is great concern about the impact of COVID-19 among the nearly 40 million people living with HIV worldwide.
Our today's guest is a very special woman with her baby. She will share with us her life experience during this hard time.
This woman is experiencing very difficult times in her life. We found her with her baby very anguished.
She discovered that she has a disease without a cure. When she began to tell us about her personal life she just started crying.
She says she have been living a difficult life even before the coronavirus, but now everything has gotten worse.
According to her, she got HIV AIDS last year at the hospital while undergoing blood transfusion. At that time, she was sick, and doctors applied infected blood.
She says she has been asking for help at several hospitals but so far she has had no success, only received syrup for her child. Moreover, she said she feels ashamed of her illness for this reason she is not comfortable going to social houses to ask for help.
She is a single mother, she discovered that she is HIV-positive when she was pregnant.
We are urging people to act with kindness, not stigma and discrimination— people affected by COVID-19 are part of the solution and must be supported.
Governments must respect the human rights and dignity of people. They also must work with communities to find local solutions.
Everyone, including people living with HIV, should take the recommended precautions to reduce exposure to COVID-19:
Regular and thorough hand washing with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub.
Maintain at least 1 metre distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
Make sure that you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene—cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze and dispose of the used tissue immediately.
Stay home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention and call in advance. Follow the directions of your local health authority.
This is the first and the only Coronavirus show in Angola where the most ordinary citizens show their brilliant talents.
The heroes of the program are the most ordinary citizens - they share with the audience their songs, poems and real stories of how the Coronavirus pandemic affected their lives.
