I find that to be a little bit surprising, given how widespread HIV medications have been since the 1990s. Are those medications scarce or prohibitively expensive where you live?

I think it’s more like a discrimination issue around here. You contacting it means you must be really pompous or something like that. And they sure are not that cheap too for the average joes too from what I heard.
I see, there's a lot of stigma (which is still present even in the US, by the way), plus the cost. These drugs are so mass-produced that I actually expected the costs wouldn't be too great; however, for someone with a poor background, even small costs can be a lot.
