“If you condemn that person as being a homosexual, that person will be afraid and be reluctant to go and get tested. If he doesn’t get tested and does not get the care and treatment and advice that he should get if he is positive, and he is positive but does not know because he is afraid to go and get tested because of the discrimination, the virus spreads. That’s why we are saying be light on those who may be engaged in such activities... Discuss the issue, stop the discrimination, stop the stigmatisation and let us therefore discuss this matter in an open, matured and frank way so that we can deal seriously and comprehensively with the spread of HIV/AIDS...”
- The Right Honourable Dr. Denzil Douglas, Prime Minister of Saint Kitts and Nevis
