By Own Correspondent| Recently elected Independent member of parliament for Norton constituency, Temba Mliswa will tomorrow (Tuesday) undergo a public HIV test at the Media Centre in Harare.
Mliswa, who last week was at the receiving end of allegations of infecting a young lady with a sexually transmitted infection is set to undergo the HIV test in full glare of the media in a move which he said is to allay fears that he is deliberately spreading the virus.
Mliswa, however is on record denying spreading HIV and he will conduct the test as part of raising awareness on stigma and discrimination against people living with HIV.
Said Mliswa:
1/Tomorrow’s public HIV testing is more about turning negative social media into an awareness campaign against the stigma that is clearly still prevalent in society against those living with HIV/AIDS. Laws must be enacted against those who knowingly infect partners with the virus
