Abstract

The ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic poses multifaceted challenges, particularly in Asia where entrenched stigma exacerbates both physical and mental health burdens among individuals living with HIV (PLHIV). Despite significant strides in public health efforts, negative perceptions surrounding the illness remain pervasive, influencing everything from diagnosis to long-term treatment outcomes. This review explores the layered nature of HIV-related stigma across Asia and its ramifications for healthcare access, psychosocial well-being, and treatment continuity. Through a thematic analysis of regional literature, the study dissects the roots and ripple effects of stigmatization, presenting a multidimensional framework for intervention strategies. It concludes by highlighting a pressing need for stigma-targeted education, community collaboration, and policy-level reforms to foster inclusive and supportive environments for PLHIV.
