"I'm afraid of discrimination..."

In Southeast Asia, Vietnam has the third largest number of people who are HIV positive – 280 000 – after Indonesia with 640 000 and Thailand with 440 000.

Mai Hoa is one of the first Catholic services looking after HIV positive patients in their final stage of life. But now the patients are suffering from discrimination as well.
