What are the rights and responsibilities of people living with HIV? | | 
01:39' PM - Tuesday, 20/10/2009 | | | The rights of PLHIV need to be recognized, respected and promoted.
They need to be actively involved in the effort to prevent the further
spread of HIV. All people living with HIV need to be able to realize
and enjoy the rights to live with dignity and peace.
Sensitive and confidential care and treatment for these individuals
should be fundamental, just as it is to those living with other life
threatening diseases. Discrimination against people living with HIV is
already prohibited in Viet Nam and those who discriminate should be
punished. Vietnamese citizens have a responsibility to help others
infected or affected by HIV to enjoy their rights. People living with
HIV should be involved in decision-making process and play a meaningful
role in the design, implementation, and evaluation of HIV prevention
and care in Viet Nam. This requires that mechanisms be developed to
allow the voices of people living with HIV, including children and
youth, to be heard.
