title: Pride and prejudice.
abstract: Nurses have been at the heart of services for people with HIV and AIDS for 30 years. In this article nurses reveal what it was like to care for patients in the early 1980s, when a positive diagnosis of HIV was effectively a death sentence. They describe the progress since then and the challenges they face today.
