UN: AIDS Response 'Under Threat' Due to Stigmas
The Spin
Left narrative
The erosion of human rights in many countries is not only a significant moral concern, but it also undermines the progress made toward ending AIDS as a public health threat. Countries are passing inhumane laws against the LGBTQ community, further stigmatizing a marginalized group that's at greater risk of contracting HIV. Countries should focus on helping communities by fighting AIDS instead of stigmatizing vulnerable groups.
Right narrative
Political correctness poses a far greater threat to public health and ending diseases like AIDS than these laws do. Groups like the UN and other so-called "public health" organizations promulgate this worldview but it's not correct. Promoting a healthy and moral society will go a long way toward ending AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
Metaculus Prediction
There's a 32% chance that the number of people globally living with HIV/AIDS in 2037 will be more than in 2017, according to the Metaculus Prediction Community.
