- Description
- Mike Carlton interviews an anonymous male dentist (voice electronically disguised and difficult to hear in places) on how he continued to practice after being diagnosed HIV positive. On the risks involved, and claims he knows other HIV positive healthcare professionals who are still working. Follows recent fears after a Kent gynaecologist was revealed to be HIV positive, and after a Welsh doctor died from an AIDS-related illness, revealed five months after it happened. Notes advise Carlton to avoid specific information which could identify the interviewee.
