[@marksfloopdoop3841]

You guys did so good with this episode. This video was very informative and helped to clear many of the misconceptions I had regarding HIV/Aids. Doctor Wong explained information really well and it was really nice to see how he answered all questions with and open-mind and not condescendingly. Really enjoyed the discussion :) 50mins flew by so quickly! thank you guys, good job!

Love the episode, very informative. Hope it dispels the myths around HIV for many others!

[@zooanimal7578]

v good video!! We rlly have died down on the awareness of hiv n im so glad to have been educated abt it!

[@avakerr3129]

Thanks for the excellent education on HIV/AIDS. Your guest DR. was so informative . The Daily Ketchup is such an amazing channel!!!! Your work is so outstanding.

[@Ggggyt8716]

Thanks to the team for creating this ep! 💯Super informational. Dr. Wong's explanations were so good, extremely clear and concise. Really enjoyed watching, learned so much in 52 mins. Looking forward to more great content from TDK! 💪

[@nareshkumarsupramaniam9783]

was expecting more talk about PREP and PEP ... it was real miss that you get an expert to talk on this topic and never cover very essential preventive method ! hope there is another talk on this !

[@Kaleidoscope2412]

Low-key one of the best episodes you guys have ever done.

[@notyourpopcorn]

Looking forward to see the fruition of HIV research for a cure too! Thank you TDK for asking about the extremities of various scenarios that might be of concern and also teaching us so much through discussion. What spoke to me most was that many fear people who have HIV, but how much more fear would people living with HIV have then? It's sad to know they struggle being accepted by society, when they're struggling to accept themselves. That's a huge load to carry around everyday... I hope to be part of a world that will seek to understand one another more and build each other up (:. Thanks Dr Wong for doing what you do!

[@chungrenhao7082]

Loving this kind of content. Keep it up!! Real informative n insightful. That pun that Dan did tho. 'Help spread the HIV positivity' haha. Sorry for laughing.

[@VivianHoGrey13]

I thought I was the only one who overthink about the pun. But its a good one regardless

[@g_ann790]

A video with solid content, got to have more informative talks like these

[@JoeChanTV]

45:00 good point there, maybe HPB can go on tour for HIV and make it a monthly outreach affair island wide so more ppl are aware of this subject. Or a digital tour considering our current situation r n.

[@hwq1234]

Another fantastic and informative episode! 👏 The willingness to cover such taboo topics is very much appreciated. Watching this episode, another taboo topic comes to mind: the sex industry. Now with the pandemic, there is no so-called regulated red light district anymore at Geylang. Yet the sex industry is definitely still thriving, just underground as you still see articles on raids at houses or the whole KTV saga. With them being underground and unregulated, the spread of sex related diseases within this industry would likewise be unregulated and therefore more widespread logically. So the question is should sex work be regulated and controlled or because its so taboo we just drive it underground and pretend it doesn't exist? Perhaps that should be talked about too.

when i see long podcast from TDK i click thumbs up

[@otuendurance5368]

My heart just keeps thanking you and thanking you Dr osaye for all you have done for me, you gave me your words that you could heal any sickness or disease, thank you for permanently curing me of the HIV virus you are amazing ...

[@eugenekonger]

Like how this discussion helps in clarifying and educating the general public. Really cool approach!

[@efge]

This was a fantastic episode!

[@stevenongmunsoon4069]

guys, could u guys consider doing a episode talking about STDs too? thanks.

[@VivianHoGrey13]

Another inspiring and educational ketchup again! Never disappoint 🔥

[@flickyamom]

Hahah the last part about not spreading mistruths. "hope you help to spread HIV positivity"

[@kevinlau5940]

This is considered a new law in many places with many people

[@Constancex97]

this was a great episode :) I learnt a lot~~

If the viral load is so low that it's undetectable, how would tests determine whether the patient is still positive?

[@Germaine4254]

when the viral load is so low that it's undetectable, its technically not positive already since their immune system is functioning at normal. the virus no longer bothers the immune system.

[@farland789]

You will always be positive once you get it.

[@jiawei0917]

tests includes testing antibodies. antibodies will never leave your body. hence if there's antibodies, it means you had the virus.

[@nt6253]

Learnt a great deal! Thanks guys

[@whyh]

It's fearful because people feels instinctively that this disease has something to do with judgement.

[@Ben-kh2rh]

Yes! 1 hour of goodness!

[@dl5066]

Can't speak for most but for me it's not so much a taboo, but a reflection of personal choices and consequences. I think it's blatantly wrong to discriminate against singaporeans who already have the condition, but that also means its their responsibility (given its something they can personally control 100%) to ensure the virus does not spread further.

[@mayurikobalakrishna]

please share something to do with TB because i see many people has less awareness of it

[@yangtzeling7468]

Do not let your obligation of humour dilute the message.

[@pukkiki]

kudos to Dr Wong!

[@benwong2061]

Learnt alot from this!

[@derrickohz]

is this episode on spotify ? cant seem to find it

[@boeing747686]

I'm going to dispute what Jon says at 46:55 where PLHIV should be more open with people around them about their circumstances. The fact that not many PLHIV are willing to be open, shows that there is still considerable fear about being open with one's status, be it for their careers or further discrimination.so I don't think it's fair for him to ask for PLHIV to be more open about their status, especially if they don't feel like they are in a safe space where they will not be judged for it. It comes off as incredibly entitled that PLHIV need to explain themselves(?) My own two cents. Also, was hoping for PEP and PREP to be featured in this discussion

[@chocolatejellybean2820]

No mention of prep ?

[@NoIGN]

52:00 might want to rethink your choice of words here

[@tanivan6387]

Hi guys, can u guys do an episode on herpes Hsv1 and 2.

"If it were DIV- It would have been for Dogs." (No guesses who said this) WAHLAUEH BRO HAHAHAHA. I felt like the teacher with a ruler or mother with a slipper in hand wanting to smack the silly child -facepalm-

[@ThumbsUpUpAndAway]

Who did that short film with Iris verghese?

[@herbalsriaji]

Health is important

[@karebu2]

Isn’t this sponsored? Regardless, I don’t think HIV/AIDS should be played down.

[@kingsufi6164]

interesting topic. Yes, should educate one another with this. I mean, me too would think of oh whta if i share drinks or touch or toilet with one. HAhaha. I like this episode. A good talk and easy to digest.
