Show Notes
Sir Ashley Bloomfield, Sir Graham Henry & Sir Buck Shelford have fronted a campaign for the NZ Herpes Foundation to help fight the stigma associated with herpes. This is yet another campaign about removing the natural consequences and stigma associated with sexually related diseases, actions and outcomes. It’s a health campaign which doesn’t tell the inconvenient truths. But health advice should always be based on biological truth, prevention and treatment – not hurty feelings. Perhaps we could add AIDS and Gonorrhoea to the list. Let’s give that a clap as well.
