Are You Positive?

This half-hour show profiles four young people - two of whom are living with HIV, two of whom are not - who open up their lives to challenge the sterotypes and misconceptions about who HIV affects. Inspired by www.posornot.com, a viral "game" developed by the Foundation with mtvU, the show reinforces the message that the only way to know one's status is to get tested. Promote the Show.
