I have HIV. Can i get a job or move to a different country?
Answer
Hi,
This depends on the country you are wanting to work and live in.
HIV i-Base is in the UK. Here there are no restrictions on the entry of people who have HIV. It is also illegal to discriminate against people in work with HIV. You are able to do any non medical job and most medical jobs without restrictions. Some medical jobs that you might be involved in surgery for might require you take regular viral load tests.
You can find lots of information about travelling with HIV and rules in different countries online.
