La pandemia de VIH/SIDA es un problema que abarca múltiples esferas a nivel personal como social, e influyendo tanto a la persona infectada como a las que conforman su red social. El estigma aparece como un problema muy importante para que las personas que viven con VIH/SIDA no busquen tratamiento, no revelen su seroestado y se aíslen de la sociedad, deteriorando ampliamente su calidad de vida. El artículo parte de una revisión de la literatura utilizando diversas bases de datos. En total fueron seleccionados 43 artículos. Los profesionales de la salud aparecen como uno de los principales actores para las PVVS, ya que brindan soporte y ayuda en varios niveles (tanto en el plano médico como en el personal), y cualquier actitud estigmatizante por parte de ellos tiene un gran impacto, de allí la importancia de identificar y corregir cualquier aspecto negativo
desde la formación académica, mediante la inclusión de contenidos en los programas curriculares tanto en pregrado como en educación continuada.
The HIV/AIDS pandemic is a problem that encompasses multiple fields on a personal and social level, influencing both the infected person and the social network he/she develops in. The Stigma appears as a very important problem for those people who live with HIV/AIDS don´t look after treatment, don´t disclose their serostatus and isolate from society, widely deteriorating quality of life. The paper begins with a review of the literature using various databases. In total 43 articles were selected. Health professionals appear as important actors for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA), as they provide support and help at several levels (including medical and personal ones), and any stigmatizing attitude expressed by them has a great impact, from there the importance of identifying and correcting any negative aspect even since academic training, through the inclusion of HIV–related content in the curriculum both undergraduate and continuing education.
