“We are not statistics” – the HIV rapid test and counseling by representatives of LGTB people

Acceso Abierto

Abstract:

This study was aim to analyze how representatives of LGBT NGOs perceive strategies about the inclusion of the rapid test for HIV/aids, syphilis and viral hepatitis in the LGBT scenario of Porto Alegre. It is a qualitative study in which 4 representatives were interviewed, and the interviews were analyzed through a critical analysis of discourse. The results point to a concern of the interviewees with the care strategies that are built with the test and how much they dialogue with human rights. This leads to tensions that have as a background the relations between State, LGBT movements and HIV. Ignoring political issues that permeate these relations depoliticizes a history in which the greatest advances in terms of prevention and confrontation have gone through a united response between different social actors. Building new spaces for discussion can allow new collective strategies to be considered in coping with the epidemic, prejudice and stigma.
