The operative key word being: education. There are three key points in this discussion I want to share: condoms, needles, and homophobia."

Lea writes: “I am an evolutionary biology graduate student working with some of the world’s earliest known HIV samples, trying to clarify the early evolutionary history of the virus.

"Remus Lupin was supposed to be on the H.I.V metaphor. It was someone who had been infected young, who suffered stigma, who had a fear of infecting others, who was terrified he would pass on his condition to his son. And it was a way of examining prejudice, unwarranted prejudice towards a group of people. And also, examining why people might become embittered when they're treated that unfairly." - J.K. Rowling.
