Moonchild Sanelly has taken to her twitter handle to pour out her thought on people living with HIV.
She stated that most people are not scared of the illness but the fear of people knowing your status can be more dangerous.
This is coming after a social media report on Friday stating the link between HIV and chronic neck pain.
She said: “HIV is no stigma!”
She said what kills is the idea that people will know about your status, when in fact you have complete control of the narrative.
“What kills you is the idea of people knowing, when it’s so in their control. One should be able to disclose status and live openly,” she said.

Recall, the star asked if there was a time people didn’t hide their status when they had HIV.
“When HIV landed, was there ever a time people didn’t hide their status? Like how we are with corona? Or will it be taboo in time?! Or because it’s not sex therefore people speak openly?
“I’m curious because if we spoke about our HIV status more, people would not be suffering in silence! A big part of your killer is your mindset, or am I wrong?”
