#HIVawareness

There have been a lot of posts about how iconic WTNV is in terms of queer media and how valuable it was for young people to see it be so openly gay from the episode and it is and I love it dearly BUT I want to talk about the moment that was truly eye opening for me. Let's talk about the actor behind the voice of Night Vale, Cecil Baldwin.

So Cecil Baldwin, like his character, is an openly gay man. He's also HIV positive and has spoken publicly about it as an advocate for HIV awareness and health. (I'd recommend looking up an interview if you can, ideally the one he did with Dylan Marron - who plays Carlos)

At the time I got into WTNV I was 18 and while I loved Cecil and Carlos's they weren't the first gay people I ever saw in a thing I liked. However my knowledge of HIV/AIDS back then mainly came from Rent, my high school health class trying to scare me about the dangers of HIV/AIDS and reading the book The Heaven Shop as a child so all I knew of it was that it was a death sentence. I didn't know it was possible now for someone with HIV to not just live and survive it but to thrive.

I didn't know, not until Cecil Baldwin. So I would like to take the time amidst all the celebration of Cecil Palmer to celebrate Cecil Baldwin the incredibly talented man who gives life to our beloved tumblr sexyman. Thank you Cecil Baldwin for updating me on the present history of HIV

‼️ATTENTION Faggots! Sex Workers! People With Bodies‼️

Your rights to PrEP, Cancer Screenings, and other preventive care are at risk!

A Texas Judge (who previously failed to overturn ACA) invalidated the preventative care statute, which required insurance to fully cover vital preventative certain cancer screenings and PrEP. Your right to life saving HIV protection is at risk!

This is super fucking important for our community. It is also a directly motivated, violent homophobic attack. Not in a internet “homophobic in effect ergo one could say” way—

‼️The stated motivation of the man who brought the suit is to use AIDS to punish homosexuality and sex work. ‼️

Conservative mega donor Dr Steven Hotze, a anti gay hate group founder, election denier, Covid conspiracy theorist, and person who filled the suit that led to this decision has stated that HIV Pre exposure drugs “facilitate behaviors such as homosexual sodomy, prostitution, and intravenous drug use” which conflicts with his religious beliefs. I repeat THE POINT IS FOR AIDS TO PUNISH HOMOSEXUALITY.

(The Hotze is now charged in connection with an agrivated assault of a repairman by a PI hired by the mega-donor to “confirm” election fraud. We might live in hell.)

This may come down to a legal fight, this may be out of the hands of protesters. BUT WATCH THIS DEVELOPMENT AND PREPARE FOR COMMUNITY ACTION.

It is possible that you are not at immediate risk. Most employers and insurers will keep these kinds of care fully covered for the same reason it was mandated: it is the ethical choice, and it saves them way more than it costs. But roughly one in five may try to save money by asking at risk groups to pay out of pocket.

And the problem will only grow more acute and widespread. Things like anxiety screenings, contraception, and many interventions for the chronically ill are also at risk of returning to pre ACA levels of financially burden, at the whims of corporate interests.

Revolutionary Cure for HIV

HIV, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a virus that attacks the immune system, leading to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) if left untreated. Since the virus was first identified in the early 1980s, scientists have been working tirelessly to find a cure for HIV. While there have been significant advancements in the treatment of HIV, there is still no cure.

However, recent scientific breakthroughs have given hope to the possibility of a revolutionary cure for HIV. One of the most promising approaches involves using gene editing technology to eliminate the virus from infected cells.

This technique, known as CRISPR-Cas9, allows scientists to precisely target and remove specific genes from DNA. In the case of HIV, the idea is to use CRISPR-Cas9 to remove the viral DNA from the infected cells, effectively curing the patient of the disease.

I know this is years ago but someone's reblog it for updated info but also the info above is still important ao

Also: don’t stigmatize HIV+ individuals because they all have different circumstances and might’ve  gotten the virus from a variety of sources (sex, occupational, birth, blood transfusions in other countries). 

HIV-related stigma remains a huge barrier to preventing HIV, and is linked to a low level of people testing for HIV. 

The bad news is that Trump is cutting America’s spending on HIV year after year.  He has taken steps to weaken the Affordable Care Act since coming to power.

What are the stage of HIV Infection?

1️⃣Acute HIV Infection: During the initial weeks post-exposure, acute HIV infection manifests with flu-like symptoms such as 🤒 fever, 😴 fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, 🤧 sore throat, muscle aches, and 🌈 rash.

These symptoms are indicative of rapid viral replication in the bloodstream.

2️⃣Chronic HIV Infection: Chronic HIV infection is often asymptomatic, and individuals may remain unaware of their status.

During this stage, the virus replicates at lower levels. With proper medical care and Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), this stage can persist for years.

Regular monitoring and adherence to treatment are crucial during this phase.

3️⃣AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome): AIDS represents the advanced stage of HIV infection and is characterized by severe immune system damage.

There is a significant drop in CD4 cells, a type of white blood cell crucial for immune function.

This decline in CD4 cells leads to a compromised immune system, making the individual susceptible to opportunistic infections and cancers.

The diagnosis of AIDS is typically made when the CD4 cell count falls below a certain threshold or when specific AIDS-defining illnesses occur.

It is important to note that the progression of HIV infection to AIDS can vary among individuals, and timely diagnosis and proper medical intervention, including the use of ART, can significantly slow down the progression of the disease.

Regular monitoring of CD4 cell counts and viral load, as well as adherence to medical advice, are critical for managing HIV and preventing the advancement to AIDS.

Early detection and appropriate treatment contribute to better health outcomes and an improved quality of life for individuals living with HIV. 🌟
