minus-squareCase@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·11 months agoFrom an American point of view, HIV treatment would absolutely ruin my life, both from the obvious health perspective, but financially. Bankrupt, homeless, sick as a dog… I could easily see someone taking their own life in that scenario. Is the medicine there? Sure. If you’re rich.
