From the Paper:

"Many communities do not react well to individuals that have HIV/AIDS because they automatically assume that these individuals are drug users do or homosexuals. Often, these individuals do belong to one of these categories. However, there are also many individuals who received HIV/AIDS through unprotected sex with someone they felt was clean, through a blood transfusion, or through a partner that they believed to be monogamous and later discovered actually was not. Some of these individuals did not live the kind of lifestyle that one would associate with HIV/AIDS, and even those that do or did live this kind of lifestyle likely did not ask for this kind of disease and should not be shunned by their community.
