Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children
HIV Incidence in Ireland: Discussion
4:00 pm
Mr. Niall Mulligan:
It has a different impact. The figures are still increasing. Another response was to make needle syringe programmes more available.
Deputy Ó Caoláin's second question was on health care settings and stigma. Mr. Brady answered it, so I do not need to, but I will reiterate his statement that this comes down to education, raising awareness and attitudes. This is a wider issue than just health care settings. There is an organisation called Positive Now.
