Throughout April we focused on public health, health equity, youth awareness, and community advocacy.

Across each conversation, one theme remains clear:

Science evolves. Communities grow. Public health improves.

Policy should evolve too.

These laws are based on outdated beliefs that HIV is a “death sentence.”
In reality, HIV is a manageable medical condition, and people in treatment can live long, healthy lives with a near-normal life expectancy.

This isn’t about safety. It’s about stigma replacing science.

Outdated HIV criminalization laws don’t protect communities. They discourage testing, increase stigma, and push people away from care.

Science has changed. HIV is preventable, treatable, and manageable. Our laws should reflect that. It’s time to replace stigma with evidence and build systems that actually support public health.

Access to HIV testing is one of the most important tools for prevention and treatment.
Communities must feel safe seeking care without fear, stigma, or discrimination.
Public health policies should encourage testing and trust in healthcare systems.
Creating supportive environments benefits everyone.

Healthcare decisions should be guided by patients, doctors, and science.
But when outdated laws intersect with healthcare, they can complicate conversations about treatment, disclosure, and care.

Modernizing policy ensures that healthcare decisions remain where they belong: between individuals and their medical providers.

Change is happening across the country.

States like Illinois, New Jersey, and Missouri have already reformed outdated HIV laws. Others are actively pushing for change.

But Ohio is still behind. These laws were written decades ago, before we had today’s science, treatment, and understanding of HIV.

It’s time for Ohio to catch up.

💡 Did you know?

In Ohio, a felony conviction doesn’t just mean time served. It can limit your ability to vote, hold public office, serve on a jury, access housing, and more.

For some people living with HIV, it can also mean being required to register as a s*x offender, even when no harm occurred.

This isn’t public health. This is stigma.

Health equity means everyone has a fair opportunity to live a healthy life.
But policies can either support health equity or undermine it.

Outdated HIV laws disproportionately affect communities already facing barriers to healthcare, testing, and treatment.
Health justice includes updating policies that create stigma instead of improving public health.
