HIV@MSD is the monthly newsletter from the MSD Interpharma
HIV Team who provides support for the development and implementation
of comprehensive HIV/AIDS strategies that are conducted in
partnership with many different national programs,
with private sector entrepreneurs, and with bilateral
organizations. Through our newsletter, we would like to
share with you the lessons we have learned from these projects
and activities.

It features
an HIV-infected chief mechanic who is so good at his job and
so well trained that his boss concluded a deal with an HIV/AIDS
specialist to ensure that "his man" would remain
highly

of keeping him under effective treatment despite repeated
changes in therapy due to product shortage at the Centralized
National Pharmacy. This was compounded by the
need to hide his HIV status in order to protect him against
the high stigma related to the disease that could harm
his career and the reputation of the garage.....................Find

Since
2002, when this mechanic was diagnosed HIV-positive, many
companies have seen the need and cost effectiveness to
treat ALL their employees and relatives, whatever their
rank in the company. HIV policies at the workplace are gaining
ground!
