President Zuma signed a bill that might be the greatest but controversial step in history of trying to combat HIV.
From now on every person who gets tested and found to be HIV positive would not just get counselling and medication. They would also get a mark in a form of a tattoo near their genital according to the bill signed by the president.
“The mark is to protect those who can’t say no to sex. I mean if you can’t read between the lines you should read between the legs because that is where the status would be tattooed. The choice to be HIV positive is now in your hands or your genitals for that matter….We also encourage those who had been living with the virus to go to the nearest public hospitals to get their status tattooed in”. Said Jacob Zuma after signing the bill and drinking his ARV’s.
It makes a whole lot of sense but very funny. I am sure this is going to raise a whole lot of controversies- human rights arguements, protests, just name it...uhmmm
