Why we must provide treatment information

Treatment literacy for whom?

We have deaf people coming to us now for treatment information and we are finding new challenges there. They translated the “positive” in HIV-positive as “something good” in sign language.

We need to target messages to disabled people. We need simple materials that can be used with people who are deaf or blind.
