HIV Does Exist and I Am Living Proof of That!

Some people have nothing nice to say...only criticism.

When I posted about the HIV vaccine, a few came at me saying "HIV doesn't exist." I've heard it all before. I've been fighting these HIV dissidents for decades especially the Rethink AIDS / House of Numbers crowd.

They once had me on a so-called "waiting list"... to die from HIV meds. They told me that my medication would kill me, not the virus. And I know for a fact they were wrong. Why? Because I lived 10 years without treatment in the early 90s. I almost died.

When I came to the United States in 2001, I started treatment. Four weeks later, I was undetectable. And here I am... 37 years after my diagnosis, alive to tell the story!!!!

The truth is painful: most of those dissidents have passed away. Many stopped their meds because they believed those lies. That's the real tragedy.

Some people listened to me; they went back on treatment and they're alive today. Others didn't make it.

I took those groups down 10-15 years ago, and I'll never stop speaking up. Because misinformation kills. And my story... my life... is proof that science and treatment save lives!!!!

Love and light ❤️🦋👽🙏
Until next time, Maria HIV Mejia
