US ends ban on HIV+ / AIDS travelers

|
The United States has finally allowed HIV+ individuals and AIDS victims to enter its borders (legally).

"We're very excited to finally see the end of this discriminatory and harmful policy," said Victoria Neilson, legal director at the advocacy group Immigration Equality.

"Getting rid of the HIV ban has been part of our core mission since we were founded in 1994," she said.

The ban on HIV+ / AIDS victims from entering the United States commenced in 1987.
