The Chinese population is gravely concerned about the HIV/AIDS outbreak. Some citizens have even suggested that every Chinese individual be tested for HIV, akin to the measures taken during Zero-COVID. The reality is that the true number of HIV infections in China is far higher than the official data suggests.
Two experts from China have estimated that the country may have experienced tens of millions of cases. The epidemic traces its origins to the notorious "blood-for-profit" scandal in the 1990s. Today, HIV infections are most prevalent among both the young and the elderly.
