ETHICS • Obligation of a physician to treat patients - World medical association (the professional responsibility of physicians in treating AIDS patients) should not refuse to treat a patient, a physician who is not able to provide care and service should refer to equipped hospitals.
ETHICS • Confidentiality - If individual feels that their status will be disclosed and in turn lead to discrimination, they may opt to get tested or treated, and that hinders offers to contain the epidemic
