    Journal Article

    There are anecdotal reports in India about the refusal to touch the body of a man dying of AIDS and cutting off the water and power supply to his family to make them leave town, of the wholesale abandonment of patients in China, banning infected children from school, detaining and sequestering HIV-infected people in rural towns to prevent their protests. The NIH partner institutes and centers included the Office of the Director (Office of Aids Research, Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research, Office of Research on Women's Health), the National Cancer Institute, the National Human Genome Research Institute, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, National Institute on Drug Abuse, the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and the National Institute of Nursing Research.
