Physical description

1 print : lithograph ; sheet 76.3 x 51 cm

Lettering

Bears logo: AIDS Concern Bears AIDS Concern Hotline number 898 4411 Chinese lettering, not transcribed. Translation: '"I'd rather people looked at me with disdain." We profoundly understand the pain of solitude: it's much worse than discrimination. For that purpose we established the AIDS Concern Buddy Project, to let you know that there really are those who won't turn away from you and will always care for you' (different from the text in the English version, Wellcome Library no. 678411i: "It's not the death sentence that hurts so much, it's the solitary confinement. HIV is for life. But life is for living. With AIDS Concern's Buddy Service you don't have to face the challenge of living with HIV on your own")
