On the occasion of International World AIDS Day, Lars E. Eriksson was invited by Springer Nature to write a 'Behind the Paper' blog post about an article published a few years ago on the development and use of a short scale for measuring stigma among people living with HIV.
Despite the availability of efficient treatment, HIV stigma still is a major challenge for people living with HIV.
In addition to Lars E. Eriksson, Maria Wiklander was also one of the co-authors of the article.
