Adam Bratt has just hit 50 and was diagnosed with HIV relatively late compared to some of the other older people with HIV. He talks about his hopes, expectations and imagines the years ahead and what they will be like. He also talks about what HIV related stigma means to him and how important it is to access support and services. Healthcare that is free of stigma is vital for him and so he gives some examples of some strategies for health care workers in how to challenge stigma when they see it. Adam is looking forward to the years ahead and tells us how excited he is knowing that Living Positive Victoria has a program specifically for people aged 50 and up.
