Caroline Kingori, Ph.D. MPH

Research on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) stigma has existed since the epidemic first became a global concern in the 1980s.

Fear of discrimination and stigma further discouraged people living with HIV/AIDS from disclosing their HIV and AIDS status, said Dr. Caroline Kingori, associate professor of social and public health.
