In your opinion, why might a person with a noncommunicable disease like diabetes be more accepted in social settings than a person with hiv?

A person with a noncommunicable disease like diabetes is likely to be more accepted in social settings than a person with HIV because you cannot "catch" diabetes - you are either born with it, or you develop it on your own due to increased levels of sugar in your body. However, HIV you can contract by having unprotected sex or by being infected by another person's blood and other bodily fluids. People tend to ostracize those who have HIV because they are scared of contracting it as well.
