"There is an opinion in our society that HIV/AIDs is connected with
morality, life style, drug addiction, prostitution and similar
things. But any person can become infected by HIV/AIDs," Gayane
Tovmasyan, project manager of the project "Support to sick people
infected with HIV/AIDs" said.
Yelena Strijak, who is also infected and came here from the Ukraine,
said Armenia is "stricter" in attitudes because of traditions. She
said there are more than 85,000 infected people in the Ukraine.
Tovmasyan said official number of infected people in Armenia is 443
but the number fluctuates from 2800-3000 excluding those with secret
phase of illness.
