Hayden Horner:

Hayden's Diary is a provocative column written by PlusNews journalist Hayden Horner, highlighting his personal experiences as a young South African living with HIV. The diary was started to try to counter the stigma attached to HIV/AIDS and hence the refusal by many in Southern Africa to admit that they have it ,or seek treatment. The aim is to encourage others to speak openly about the virus, tackling the stigma and denial."

Oziel Njengabantu Mdletshe

After having been diagnosed HIV positive in 1997, Oziel (38) joined National Association of People Living with HIV/AIDS (NAPWA). Here he became involved in the forefront of a Disclosure and Acceptance Campaign from 1998. Oziel became an HIV activist who led by example and was among very few males from KZN to disclose and accept living with HIV.

"Being open publicly it was from my heart, because I was diagnosed without knowing how I got the virus like many people, and felt that I need to address this issue to the public. Facing stigma and discrimination of people living with HIV, a lot of courage and positive living is needed from me."

Oziel has held a number of talks at workplaces and churches. Workers and church members have benefited a great deal from these talks and workshops, and have led to the formation of support groups.

Being a trained counsellor and living with HIV, Oziel does counselling in the household, families and individuals. He has lost his sister, daughter, brother and brother-in-law to AIDS.

"HIV/AIDS has been a reality in my family."
