Description

In this statement provided to the Center for HIV Law & Policy, Professor Larry Gostin, an internationally recognized public health lawyer, is once again calling on the CDC to revisit its policy on HIV-infected health care workers. According to Gostin, "It is now time to revisit this issue. As we work to advance the idea that HIV testing is always in the individual’s interest, that HIV is a treatable, manageable disease, and that HIV stigma is on the decline, we must ensure that national policy reflects these ideals."
