frandroidPatients séropositifs : la discrimination perdure
La Presse obtained a study by the Public Health Agency of Canada (through an FAI request, not voluntarily...) about the discrimination HIV/AIDS patients face in the healthcare system, including dealing with dentists. Many of these people refuse to deal with them, some of often implying that their treatment is not necessary, since they have a lowered life expectancy anyway! It's quite stunning that the doctors that are supposed to treat these patients refuse them service.
