这项研究旨在研究印度两个大城市的耻辱感及其潜在因素的流行情况。横断面访谈数据收集自印度孟买和班加罗尔多个医疗机构的1,076名非HIV患者。绝大多数参与者支持对边缘化群体进行强制性检测，并对PLHA实施强制性家庭政策，称他们“活该”感染，“不在乎”感染他人。大多数参与者不想在同一家诊所接受治疗或使用与PLHA相同的器具，传播误解很常见。多元线性回归分析显示，责备、传播误解、象征性污名和对PLHA的负面感受与污名和歧视均显著相关。结果表明，迫切需要继续努力减少污名，以减少PLHA的痛苦和预防和治疗的障碍。鉴于对胁迫性政策的指责和认可程度很高，至关重要的是，这些方案必须在人权框架内制定。
This study was designed to examine the prevalence of stigma and its underlying factors in two large Indian cities. Cross-sectional interview data were collected from 1,076 non-HIV patients in multiple healthcare settings in Mumbai and Bengaluru, India. The vast majority of participants supported mandatory testing for marginalized groups and coercive family policies for PLHA, stating that they “deserved” their infections and “didn’t care” about infecting others. Most participants did not want to be treated at the same clinic or use the same utensils as PLHA and transmission misconceptions were common. Multiple linear regression showed that blame, transmission misconceptions, symbolic stigma and negative feelings toward PLHA were significantly associated with both stigma and discrimination. The results indicate an urgent need for continued stigma reduction efforts to reduce the suffering of PLHA and barriers to prevention and treatment. Given the high levels of blame and endorsement of coercive policies, it is crucial that such programs are shaped within a human rights framework.
