Mosiria Calls for Probe into HIV Exposure Claims and Panadol Myth

Geoffrey Mosiria, Nairobi County's Chief Officer for Citizen Engagement and Customer Service, has urged authorities to investigate allegations of a woman knowingly exposing others to HIV. The claims, which have been circulating in a video, raise health and safety concerns that warrant a thorough examination.

Mosiria also called on health authorities to look into a separate claim that taking Panadol can cause a person living with HIV to test negative. He emphasized that any response should be guided by evidence and the law, not unverified claims.

Health Guidance

Medical guidance is clear that Panadol is not an HIV treatment and does not eliminate the virus or cause a person to test negative. Mosiria advised anyone concerned about their status to seek advice from qualified healthcare professionals and accredited testing facilities.
