Money for those affected – the dentist did not want to treat HIV-positive people

“I am very pleased with the positive judgment, with which the court awarded our plaintiff full damages,” said Theresa Hammer, Head of Legal Enforcement at the Litigation Association. “Unfortunately, HIV-positive people experience discrimination in healthcare services time and time again. You can defend yourself against this, if necessary in court, as our client shows.” In the previous year, the reports of unequal treatment that went to the AIDS organization concerned primarily incidents with doctors, in hospitals or during stays at a spa or rehabilitation center (65.7 percent). Other reports came from the areas of private/leisure (17.2 percent), work (8.5 percent), media/Internet (5.7 percent) and authorities/insurance (2.9 percent).
