Attitudes of Japanese physicians not specializing in care toward people living with HIV and their care

The findings aligned with concerning situations in Japan highlighted by other studies. They also suggested that more careful attitudes may be needed regarding the protection of the privacy of people living with HIV. However, research has also suggested that some physicians could become more positive by providing specialist support for the treatment and prevention of HIV infection. Large-scale and ongoing surveys are imperative to continuously implement effective and reliable interventions that could change the attitudes of general physicians toward people living with HIV.
