Survey: ARE YOU HESITANT AROUND PEOPLE WHO ARE HIV POSITIVE?

I'm not aware that I have ever been in the company of anyone who was HIV positive. However, I wouldn't be afraid of normal contact as I know I would not be at risk of infection. I am surprised that any woman in her 40s would not know that, but it's possible, in which case we shouldn't judge her knee-jerk reaction even though it appeared to be highly insensitive.
