Hi Guys!
Just a quick question, not pertaining to me of course, but a question none the less.
Last night I was at a church sponsored event when I get a call from a classmate/friend of mine. We made small talk about our class and our final grades ect, and then she asked me a question about medical school. And since I don't have this problem, I don't have an answer. So I thought I'd run through you guys!
The question is this: Can an person who is HIV + get accepted to Medical School? Can a person who is HIV+ get licensed and practice as an MD?
I know as a MS student you have to undergo physicals and vaccinations and testing but what happens if you test positive for HIV? Does that automatically disqualify you from medical school?
Just wondering...any info would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
