Coronavirus is the new HIV: Applying the 10 Principles to Living with HIV and Living Through COVID-19

This interactive workshop, hosted by a Burner who has been HIV positive for almost 20 years, explores how principles like radical self-reliance and decommodification could have sped HIV’s evolution from death sentence to treatable disease, and how we can avoid repeating those mistakes by applying these principles to the current Covid-19 crisis. Burners will discover how principles like immediacy and civic responsibility apply to contemporary issues like disclosure, social distancing and ‘pozzing’ to rethink public health systems and save millions of lives.
