What the petition asks
After informing (scaring) the nation with its 1987 AIDS monolith TV advert, it is time for the Government to update the public on HIV and the advances in science with a campaign based around "U=U" (Undetectable = Untransmittable).
The Government should create a national media campaign to quash over 30 years of stigma around HIV. The government spent £5m in 1987 (the equivalent of £13.2m in 2022) on the monolith advert. A new campaign from the Government does not need to cost the earth, if it uses those living with HIV to front the campaign.
