Mexico: Supreme Court rules discharge  of HIV-positive troops unconstitutional.
On 27 February 2007, Mexico's National Supreme Court of Justice ruled unconstitutional an article of the Social Security Institute Law for the Armed Forces that required HIV-positive service men and women to be discharged. The ruling came as the Court determined a group of 11 cases brought by HIV-positive ex-military personnel requesting constitutional injunctions against their dismissals from the armed forces.
